That's what I supposed, but is it a fundamental requirement of Vim? I
mean, if that 'firstline' option was added, could the code be modified
to display any part of the first real line on top of the window?

I understand it can be nice to keep 'real' lines as a whole, but when
they span 10-15 'visible' lines, it's quite annoying. In my case, I
frequently lose the spot I'm looking at when moving the cursor,
because of the big blocks appearing suddenly.
