I'm irritated that the newly chosen window-start can be after the
original position. I don't know any use case where this is useful, and
it was only irritating whenever it happened in my test. Is this
unavoidable?
BTW, why does the adjustment happen when I just move the cursor inside
the displayed window content without causing any display change? The
new heuristic seems to depend on the value of `point' (I don't mean
values that would cause scrolling the normal way).
Thanks,
Michael.
