Thanks. With this recipe, I do see some unusual behavior of the
cursor, but not the one you described. On my system, the cursor stays
at its position before the final C-p, then, a fraction of second
later, jumps to its correct position. It doesn't stay at the top line
of the window.

Yes, but you should be aware that this might make a difference for
redisplay problems: typing M-x causes a mildly thorough redisplay, so
it might obscure some problems and cause some others. That's why I
asked.

No, that's a different problem. The problem discussed here happens
because point moves outside the window to the place that's invisible.
By contrast, bug #17047 was about a situation where the goal position
was visible in the window at all times.
Anyway, I fixed the problem I see here in commit cca5629 on the
emacs-25 branch. Please see if your problem is solved by that change.
Thanks.
