[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Dear maintainers,
With the current master if we launch an emacs -Q session we can use the
mouse pointer to find an invisible button to the left of the "All" word
on the mode line.
Its tooltip shows the same information as the actual "All" button.
Pressing on this invisible button provides a pop-up menu to toggle line
and column number display.
See attached screenshot.
Thank you,
Protesilaos

I've now fixed this in a different way in Emacs 29. (But gnu.org is
still down, so it's not pushed yet.)

Pushed now.
By the way, I wanted to mention -- while poking at this stuff, I noticed
that apparently the mode line is redisplayed multiple times when doing
some common things.
For instance, hitting page-down seems to render the mode line twice?
Mouse-clicking something also renders it twice. Hm... oh, it renders
once on mouse-down and once on mouse-up, so I guess that's OK. So I
guess the only mysterious one is the page-down/page-up double render.

This is normal. Scrolling commands first see if point is inside the
window, and that requires redisplay of the mode line (because its
spec could have changed in the meanwhile). Then the scrolling
commands determine the appropriate window-start point, and then
redisplay kicks in with the second update of the mode line.
