Three things:

1) I'd like to have a visual feedback where I am in the file.  I have files 
that are extremely wide and that have empty spots. You can get lost.

2) I'd like to view other parts of the file without moving the cursor.

3) I think that scrollbars are better to quickly navigate large distances in 
large files. Ok, 90% are small movements within small files. Here, I enjoy the 
Emacs key mappings.
