I see.  Perhaps my setting of zero for `scroll-conservatively' is the culprit.

(But I see the same behavior in older Emacs versions, where the doc of
`scroll-conservatively' does not mention that zero means recenter.  Perhaps that
just represents an old doc problem.)

In my case, I really only care about this for Isearch.  Isearch should, I think,
bring you back where you were, including the window position.
