In this test case, I create a coffin with height of 24pt and depth of 48pt. Then I create a horizontal test pole with 12pt offset (\SetHorizontalPole \tmpa {test} {12pt}). It is supposed to be 12pt above the b pole according to the documentation. However the actual test pole is 12 pt above the H pole, which is contradictory to the documentation.
The change is correct I would say and from the real baseline you can get to "b" via \Depth. Maybe it would have been nice/better if one could have made the starting point another argument so that you can offset from an existing pool.
Anyway, not having looked at this for a long time :-) I wonder if the graphics are not a bit misleading, showing H at b --- while this is correct for the given graphics it is not that helpful. Perhaps a bit richer graphic with content inside that has 4 lines would be more helpful, show T/B/H in different positions (and not = b). Maybe worth a note for a rainy day.
