That sounds like you want it to stay like it is. I still think it
might be good to give people a way to have the vertical position of
point fixed for any kind of scroll commands, e.g. when scrolling with
the mouse wheel. Currently, if `scroll-preserve-screen-position' is
set to t, scrolling with the mouse wheel will move point vertically,
but only till the chunk to be scrolled would move it out of the
window. That means point will keep a margin from the window top or
bottom respectively which looks a bit awkward.
