Testing this afternoon, here's a recipe that shows the problem for me
(on Emacs 24):
1. emacs -Q [1]
2. M-x eww
3. Enter http://www.fsf.org/campaigns/ at the prompt [2]
4. M-x split-window-below (this is to make the images taller than the
window)
5. Scroll down the page with C-n, down to the heading "Secure Boot vs
Restricted Boot" (about 51 lines)
6. C-n to the blank line above the image
7. C-n eight times (this scrolls the image at one would expect, one
"line" at a time)
8. C-n again

The `C-n's in Step 7 scroll the image as one would expect. At the
second last of those `C-n's, the heading "Secure Boot vs Restricted
Boot" scrolls off the top of the window. At the next `C-n' the blank
line below the image is at the top of the window.
At the next `C-n' (Step 8) which I understand is supposed to move
point to the line below the image [Although it would be awesome if it
could continue scrolling the image one "line" at a time.], the
scrolling "glitches" and point moves _up_ again to the blank line
above the image.
I will install Emacs 25 now and report back whether I still see the
same behaviour on this system.
Regards,
Neil.
