According to cus-start.el, "Always" has the value "1".
However, I think "Always" is too drastic change.
`scroll-preserve-screen-position' = t would be better as
the default since it does what most other programs do.

Please consider also another change that makes default scroll-(up|down)
behavior more acceptable especially for users coming to Emacs from
other editors is such behavior that on reaching the top of the buffer
with the key <prior>, point moves to the first line, and only the
subsequent <prior> signals the error "Beginning of buffer", and
on reaching the bottom of the buffer with <next>, point moves to the
last line before signaling "End of buffer".
