Conclusion: find something more productive to do, like making some useful language grammars or commands, or else go back to Alpha or emacs or whatever, where you can get all the API you can eat. When you have read the manual, and spent a few weeks or months working with TextMate, and you find something you can't accomplish, send a note to this list, and we will try to help you. If your problem still cannot be solved, and its solution will vastly improve the productivity of a large number of people, then you will have a more compelling case to make for the addition of an API.
There are so many things that cannot be done without the use of an API that your suggestion is absolutely unworkable.
1) I did the suggestion not only to this list but also to Allan. He answered me. It was ok.
2) I was trying to answer Kevin about a question he issued but I was cheeky. Obviously there is one way to position the text analyzing the text and placing there $0 and outputting through as snippet. This was the correct answer to Kevin. And as I learned a lot with the Charilaos answer I payed him my gratitude.
3) You are asking for improvements in the way TM do the things _now_ but I am telling you that many things are absolutely impossible without a lot of work from the programmer side. An simple example: to select the text that is inside html/xml "braces" <font ...> </ font>. This is very important in html editing for many reasons and is absolutely impossible in TM right now.
