#117 Javadoc for a CodeElement's valid offset is unclear

[Remy Chi Jian Suen]

Is this offset supposed to start at index 0 or index 1? This is not specified in the API for getValidOffset() and is confusing to consumers. What was it originally intended to be?

Bernhard, please comment.

The idea is simple:
It must be possible to do a

IDocument doc;
doc.replace(validOffset,0,childelement_as_string);

to insert a child element as a string in a element. The child element should be the first child then.

It must also be possible to do a
IDocument doc;
doc.replace(validOffset+validLength,0,childelement_as_string);
to insert a child as last child.

This bug is close related to 1872385. I will formulate the javadoc better after I have solved this problem.
