Anwswering the Subject:

No, you can't 'clear' current point without 'clearing' the current path. 
The current point is the end of the current path. If there is no path 
then there is no current point, if there is a path then the current 
point is the end of the current path.

You can shift the current point by doing a moveto, which is then added 
to the current path.
