Yes, I understand that.  But the problem is any command that can call
`line-move' will end up resetting the vscroll, which most people don't
expect.  Since making `line-move' not reset the vscroll is not an
option, a better solution will have to be found, which replacing
previous-line/next-line is not.

I know of an external package named `good-scroll' that tries to solve
this problem.  I'll let you know of my findings.

Thanks in advance.
