Yes, I need to rely on this position afterwards, for example, for relating
model pieces to the source code. The question is how to retrieve and how to
store this information.

Indeed. The problem is that the token of PetitParser only knows the character
position from the stream. This would mean that we would have to modify the
tracking of the position with extra information.
Is there no other option?
