Mostly because keyboard navigation is generally considered to act
directly on the blinker (Insertion Point, IP Mark, whatever), whereas
mouse navigation scrolling acts on the screen scrollbars which tend to
be a desktop GUI thing.

I think that it would be handier to simply place a mark, by a keyboard
combination, that could easily be returned to. This i think may be more
useful than your request, for instances where you actually make an edit
elsewhere before returning.

I read Brian Barkers reply before replying myself, and though it
answers your question, it made my head hurt :)
