Hence the problem. What I was looking for is a location within
the prior tiddler regardless of story shifting (or re-arange of
tiddlers). I
wonder if recording:

  offset = vertical location of parent tiddler - vertical location of
current link

when moving to the child tiddler and then when closing the child
tiddler perform:

  determine vertical position of parent tiddler and scroll to that
location + offset

would work. It would obviously fail if the window was resized, but
should work
through story column manipulations. The way I was also considering of
tackling
it was to add an <a name='...'></a> near the location I was coming
from (include say
the timestamp in the name to make sure it is unique) and adding it to
the DOM.
Not sure if that is possible but that would be safe against  story
changes as well
as browser window size changes etc. since it doesn't mark a display
location but
a location in the text.
