Wish it worked (but it doesn’t)

This plugin sounds great, as a fix to the HUGE BUG that the wordpress editor has. The bug/decision in wordpress is extremely annoying and unbelievable. The problem is that this plugin does not work.

Can this be integrated as a default in WP?

This plugin solves an ongoing PIA. Would be wonderful if this was the default behavior with no plugin required.

Preserve Editor Scroll Position

Excellent time saver. If you are editing any long list or extensive post, saving the draft or updating the post does not lose your place in the editing process.
