preface: I think the forms/reports embedded in databases are a rather special
case for embedded objects, since the fact that those "sub-documents" are
implemented the same way as, say, a Writer doc embedded in a Calc doc is
implemented, is a pure technical coincidence, which we should not bother the
user with.

That said, I completely agree that the feature to *remember* the scrolling
position is very valueable, in both "usual" outplace objects, and in database
sub documents. This holds for both the preview and the normal opening.
However, what the user most probably does not expect is that a simple scrolling
modifies the document - this is simply not expectation conformant.

So, what I would love most is something similar to the behaviour of OOo 1.x for
*normal* documents:
Scrolling (and other view-related actions such as zooming) did not affect the
"modified" flag. However, they were stored together with the document, and
restored upon next reload.
That is, if you scrolled and saved, the scroll pos was restored. If you scrolled
and didn't save (e.g. because you didn't do any other modifications), then the
scroll pos was lost without further warning.

In my opinion (Marc, I'd be interested in yours), this would be the best
solution: Store the scroll position, and other view-related settings, together
with the document, and restore it on next load. But, and that's the important
change, do *not* flag a document as modified just because of scrolling.

Mikhail, can we implement something like this? Perhaps a flag which we pass to
the embedded object, saying something like
"DoNotModifyThisDocumentJustBecauseTheUserScrollsTheView = sal_True"?
