Keep cursor towards top of display

While working, Studio should keep its horizon up towards the top, i.e. it should automatically keep the segment being worked on in the upper portion of the screen so that one can see what is coming up. Current behaviour defaults to the active segment at the bottom, so one has to keep scrolling back up. Also applies to Find-and-Replace, where the found item is always at the bottom of the screen. Should be at the top.

The thing is that it should maintain the configured position ALWAYS (when possible, of course), not only sometimes.

There are also us who are not translators and do not confirm segments (to make it work again)...

@Bruce Campbell: what you describe happens, when you scrolled previously, used search or filtering on the file. And of course at the beginning or end of the file. But when you confirm the current segment, the next one will get centered - at least this is how it works here.

I agree that one should be able to specify the default location -- and Studio should maintain it.

Currently, even if you specify in the editor options that the current segment should be centred, it often moves to the top or bottom of the window, forcing you to scroll it back to the centre.

Another feature I never knew existed. Some of us spend all our time working, with no time to experiment.... :)

Middle is just perfect for me - you can see the context. When on top, the previous sentences will be missing.
