No.
Some new setPositionCache(x, y) immediately called before draw() would
solve the same problem.

Why do you think I have such a thing?
If there were such a thing it would be offended by having
virtual
DispatchResult
priv_dispatch(FuncRequest const & cmd, idx_type & idx, pos_type & pos);
instead of nice litlle
DispatchResult dispatch(FuncRequest const & cmd);
in 90% of the cases.

Btw: You know Pontius and Pilatus version 2003_de?
A: Hey look, I've a document and a photocopy of it and _you_
want a stamp on the letter. So please check that they are identical
and put a stamp of it.
P0: Well, I could, if <102312 restrictions>. So go to P1 who issued the
document.
[A off to P1, 40 km]
A: Hey look, I've got a document of yours and a photocopy of it. Would you
please put a statement on the copy that it is a proper copy and a
stamp or such?
P1: I am not allowed to do so.
A: But you issued the document.
P1: Sure. I am allowed to do that, but not to stamp the copy.
Go ask P2 or P3.
A: P2 is 500 km away, I need it now....
[A Off to P3, just 3 km away]
A: ...
P3: Well, of course we could do that.
Generally spoken.
However, there are only two out of our 900+employees who are authorized.
A: No problem, one is enough.
P3: Well, one is sick, the other off for a holiday. Try P4.
[A Off to P4, again 3 km, just around the corner of P2]
Guess what. Happy end for EUR 2.50.
