Don't understand your "follow option" question.  I run mine in Fixed Tune Mode which holds the span [i.e. edge frequencies] constant and the two VFO's show up as two vertical cursors in the spectrum display.  The cursors move as I tune, and when I go beyond the edge, the span shifts by the amount I've set in the menu ... I use a full span.  In the Tracking Mode, your receive frequency is always centered and the spectrum moves past it as you tune.

How does one set the follow option, I just looked through the menu of the P3, and don't see it.

Yes, it has been discussed, and yes, that is the case.  It seems to be most prevalent when returning to a band after moving off for a Q, such as in NAQP's when the return is being commanded via CAT command.  In fairness to the Elecraft developers, it /*appears*/ that it is attempting to put the frequency you are returning into the center-ish part of the display which is not totally unreasonable.

I know this has been asked before but I don't remember the answer.  Isn't the P3 supposed to remember the span and center frequency from band to band?  It seems to change center frequency even if the band hasn't changed, but that may not be the case.
