It should show you where the cursor is, if that place is re-layouted as the
result of your actions.

For the exotic say color of paragraph case this simply not true. There is no
change at all at cursor position. 

For they page style difference.. Page style is changed all over the place. So
they 'cursor' position is as random as staying on the page. 

Another exception is press CTRL+A at top of the document. The cursor is at the
bottom but shows still they top page (which is desired, but doesn't fit the
principle)

If you want to see what you're doing, you scroll to the position where the
change happens. If you have the cursor at some random spot, the scroll to
cursor thing is simply frustrating annoying as it only disturbing workflow;
creates surprises & you need to find the original page again.

So question is more what's the general rule & what the exception. I tend to
stay put, except for.. CTRL+Z CTRL+Y CTRL+V 

As I don't see the usability.. we still need some kind of poll system build in
to LibreOffice. Infobar pointing to a poll.. where an example is illustrated
with they question what people would expect :-)

Discussing this kind of topic in some obscure bug tracker ticket ...
