Layers or overlays are certainly the right method. But there is also the
\position macro:
So that is still used? (If so, I should look into optimizing and cleanup
as it's real old code).
Seems like a feature that's nice to have; it mirrors the texpos
package for LaTeX. Please update it.
It does not really mirrors something (so it's not something users expect 
to be there I guess) ... if I remember right I made it for putting 
hyperlinks on specific places as I didn't want to use pictex for that. 
We have layers that provide a better mechanism.

Anyway, it's not that much code so it can stick around (I even see a 
dutch comment so it's real ancient).
