strange behaviour of scrolling

[Emmanuel Beffara <beffara lsv ens-cachan fr>]

Hello,

There is a strange behaviour when scrolling through a document in 
continuous mode in Evince. I have a PDF document with an index. Whenever 
I switch to a different page in the document, if this page contains an 
index entry, for instance a section title, then the page is 
automatically scrolled to put this title at the top of the window. If 
the title is at the bottom of the page, it means that the top of the 
page is not shown unless I scroll back, which is particlarly annoying.

The same behaviour happens when reloading a document: if the page that 
occupies the middle of the display window contains an indexed title, 
then the view port is moved after reloading so the the title is at the 
top of the page.

This only happens for documents with an index, of course. If this is a 
bug, then it should be fixed; if it is a feature (although I can't think 
of a situation when this would be useful), it should at least be made 
optional.

BTW, I use a CVS version that I compiled last december. I put a sample 
document at http://ebeffara.free.fr/evince-bug.pdf. The bug does not 
seem to appear systematically, but using "reload" seems to help.
