The "new" grep's -b option provides everything necessary to do "efficient"
post-processor-based context display (file offsets rather than line numbers).

Since there's a proposed change in the semantics of "-b", I've suggested
changing its name (to "-B" or "-z" or whatever) to avoid quiet surprises from
existing scripts.
