Please forgive my lateness to this thread.  Is the only requirement that
the point from which a code block was called be accessible to the
emacs-lisp code executed within that code block?

If so then there should be no need for additional development.  The
following already works thanks to some very recently applied changes.
See the attached example which demonstrates how to access the point of
the original call from a code block.
