Actually, we are not half bad at the moment.  The idea is that when
moving the cursor to the calculated position would require
recentering, then instead vscroll/hscroll are used.

This works best (though not yet optimal) when going forward
vertically.  The equivalent functionality horizontally is not there
yet, and backward movements are somewhat less optimal.
