I'm not sure if anyone has suggested this so far.

My motivation here comes from experience, as I work mostly by dialup
and cannot preview or print at such times.

I would find it incredibly useful if there were a special form of
\label that would report to the aux file on the position, say in x and
y coordinates, of the baseline under a given point on the page of output.
