probably you can remember the point on first
mouse scroll event and jump to it later.  you
can hide display of the cursor during scrolling.

rough sketch:
- advise scrolling commands to save point
  unless last-command is a scrolling command
- advise scrolling commands to hide cursor
- advise all other commands (or maybe just C-l)
  to show the cursor
- advise C-l to jump to the saved point
- make all this advising into a minor mode

feel free to post code when you find/write it!
