That's a good argument.  I have made the change as you recommend.

I'm not entirely sure what behavior you mean.  You could try this:

  (defadvice mwheel-scroll (around mwheel-scroll-sticky activate)
    (let ((pos (point)))
      ad-do-it
      (goto-char pos)))

I have just released version 1.7, which has the latest auctex.  Let me
know if you have any problems with it -- I did not do much testing of
the new auctex myself.

Best wishes,

Peter
