This is the main point of the mode. It should make moving in buffers
more pager-like. For example, in `less' the keys `C-n' and `C-p' will
scroll the buffer, not move point. That means such a mode could also
improve convenience of browsing manual pages with WoMan or info pages
with the built-in info reader.
Regarding the implementation: If people think it is sensible to extend
the meaning of `scroll-preserve-screen-position' to any kind of scroll
events, I could prepare a patch covering the changes in window.c as
well.
