Well, that's not quite what I meant.  That means the overlay only
displays on that window AFAIK, which is desirable for the effect - but
it doesn't let you, given the window, find the overlay, at least not
directly.

Indeed - I suggested a pre-command-hook could warp before each page
down to highlight anew each time, but that's only desirable sometimes
(whole-page scrolls the most likely case - it would be horrible for
scroll-bar or point-move scrolls).   Anyway, think next version can
make that customisable.
