Describe the issue

Steps to replicate the issue:

  • Start editing something long enough there is a scrollbar
  • Scroll to bottom (Ctrl+End)
  • Enter something
  • Do an undo (Ctrl+Z)
  • Scroll to top (Ctrl+Home)
  • Do a redo (Ctrl+Y)
  • Do an undo (Ctrl+Z)

Actual behavior:
The cursor goes to top (and so does the scroll view), so it's not clear what was just undone.

Expected behavior:
The cursor stays adjacent to the chunk that was changed, so it's clear what was just undone.
