We have.

Two options for working with wide columns or tall rows. Or with undersized
displays.

One would be to adjust the sheet scroll from default spreadsheet centric
"scroll by cell edge" to a "scroll by screen pixel" and requiring new
implementation.

The other option was implemented to expose the content of oversize cells to
edit engine and UI control via an expandable input window on the FormulaBar
(View ->  Formula Bar) where you will find a "Expand Formula Bar" and "Collapse
Formula Bar" toggle triangle.

The collapsed formula bar is one character row in height. The expanded formula
bar input window can be dragged as tall as 25 lines. Default is 6 lines, but
the UI value is recorded into the spreadsheet on save, so it keeps it handy. 
For really large cell content (an actual sc formula or text strings), the input
window has a vertical scroll to work with the entire cell (up to 64,000
characters IANM).

Pixel level scrolling a sheet would be nice to implement, but you already are
able to work with cells larger than the display or the app window using the
Formula Bar's input window, without having to zoom the sheet out.
