Yes, I mean (1). Why is it impossible? In gVIM you can also use the mouse to
place cursor so I don't see a scenario where you'll "lose" the cursor. 

I hope there is a way to force it to keep cursor in one position without the
overhead of using marks. :) Maybe some complex add-in or script or
something?
