>>> Most OTP (at least erl_lint, erl_parse and syntax_tools) already knows that locations can be a line or a line and a column; furthermore it is said in erl_parse itself that one should always use get_line/1 and set_line/3 instead of depending on having an integer there.
>>>
>>> If it is really that heavy of a change, why do we have erl_scan:set_attribute/3 and erl_scan:attributes_info/{1,2}? They obviously were coded to mitigate these issues.
>>>
>>> Can't this option be included as part of an experimental feature and bugs be fixed as they emerge? It's not like it is mandatory to use it, nor like there is not already experimental and dubious code in OTP (parameterized modules I'm looking at you).
>>>
>>> Any parse transform that break because of this change will break because it does AST manipulation wrong and their users will just have to not use the "column" option for it to continue to work.

>>> I'm not deterred at all from getting this patch into OTP and I would like to know exactly which tests should I update to make you guys happy.
