I've tested it with `scroll-preserve-screen-position' set to t and I
find the cursor movement weird (to my tastes, not as a general comment
:)

With `scroll-preserve-screen-position' set to 'always I like it more,
but the fact is: you've designed a very nice scrolling package. What
I'm talking about is not scrolling. I want to move the cursor normally
on forward- and backward-char, but I want it to remember where it is
so scroll-up/down (and perhaps forward/backward-paragraph) can return
to it exactly.

There's quite overlap between what you've done and what I'd like to
have. Perhaps it's only a question of adding commands for
scroll-up/down and making it configurable, as you propose, so I can
have those without having to activate scroll-lock mode (which I would
do, *when* I want a full scroll-lock mode, to read etc/NEWS for
example).
