I don't think that marks can be set halfway a character anyway, even with 'virtualedit' nonempty. (Or can they?)
Correct. [At least in GVIM,] the cursor turns into a double-width block when on a Kanji character. 'virtualedit' only applies to positioning inside <Tab> characters.
Also be aware that the byte-index returned by getpos() is not related to the screen width of a character (queried via virtcol()). In UTF-8 encoding, a Kanji character is stored in 3 byte, but takes two columns of screen space. There can also be multi-column characters that only take up one byte (<Tab> is the most prominent one), and multi-byte characters that only take up one column.
