`scroll-in-place' means for them to keep the cursor at the same position
of the screen regardless of whether there's any text at that position.
In practice, this can be currently implemented only with the help of an
overlay as with Kim's cua-rect.el.  Obviously, if we are able to not
show the cursor (Emacs on Windows currently lacks this capability IIUC)
no overlay is needed.
