The current logic is careful that users willing to move to a new
position cannot move in the future, but the logic is visibly wanted to
accept past values. Petr, what do you think? KeepLogSeg() won't return
negative values so some applications may take advantage of that. Or
should advancing be simply disabled for non-initialized slots?
