If you evaluate the following in a sufficiently long buffer,

    (minibuffer-with-setup-hook
        (lambda () (scroll-other-window 100))
      (read-from-minibuffer "Pressing RET now will recenter"))

then the point will be at the top of the window.  From there, pressing
RET shifts the window so that the point is in the middle (the point
itself doesn't move).

I just want there to be no recentering, i.e., leave `window-start' where
the point is.
