I think, this can be handled in the client itself using a function such as:
def getcood(text, cursorpos):
    row = 1
    col = 1
    pos = 0
    for char in text:
        if pos > cursorpos:
            break
        if char == '\n':
            row += 1
            col = 1
        elif char == '\t':
            col = ((col/8)+1)*8
        col += 1
        pos += 1
    return row, col

This will work in gedit for both word wrapping on and off (as reported by the
status bar although text might appear on the next line)
