by concurrency I meant multiple devices of the same user, not multiple users. I don't know why you'd even consider that I think other users' progress should be exposed on a single call?
and yet again, that progress doesn't mean anything when you base it on a number. locator patterns that find the SECTION you're in based on first-last word (or rather, sentence, for actual precision) are the way to go. you can try hacking this simplified protocol as much as you want, it will never work as well as a dedicated one.
