But currently `doc-view-continuous-mode' has the same purpose with
a different name :-)
Generally, what I what to achieve is to do the same as in stand-alone
PDF viewers - there is only one menu item "Continuous mode". However,
continuous mode is implemented differently: some PDF viewers use
smooth scrolling, other PDF viewers display only one image at a time.
With a variable like `doc-view-continuous-kind', we could make this
difference customizable. We should to find a way to do this cleanly.
