Hi, Robert,

Thanks for your comment. I agree with what you say. I'm afraid this
action, as I proposed it, is impractical. The proof is that I haven't
used it too much :-). Avy also includes some factory keys where the
action is performed on the target without losing focus or cursor
position. For example, to copy a "distant" word and paste at point. This
would be a more reasonable use case. Taking inspiration from Avy's code
for these actions, I've defined this new version:

(add-to-list 'avy-dispatch-alist '(?: . (lambda (pt)
                                          (goto-char pt)
                                          (hkey-either)
                                          (let ((dat (ring-ref avy-ring 0)))
                                            (select-frame-set-input-focus
                                             (window-frame (cdr dat)))
                                            (select-window (cdr dat))
                                            (goto-char (car dat))))))

Now hkey-either would run without losing the current focus and cursor
position. An example of use that occurs to me: for my translation of the
Odyssey into Spanish I have defined some implicit buttons that do the
following: if they are activated in a certain positions of the verse
(for example, at the beginning of the verse), it is shown in a temporary
postframe: a) the verse translated by me if the action is performed on
the original Greek verse and b) the original Greek verse if the action
is on the translated verse.

I think that is better seen in this short video:

Best regards,

Juan Manuel
