And while we are on the topic of math pop-ups, I have hound that the automatic 
repositioning that goes on when when I enter a math formula with the math 
toolbar toggled on is extremely annoying: The text shifts so that the math 
formula line is at the bottom of the screen, instead of leaving it where it was 
originally. 

And while I'm on the topic, using the Navigate menu options also has this 
annoying behaviour: Selecting a destination moves the text so that this 
destination is at the bottom of the screen too. Since most of these 
destinations are Section/subsection/subsubsection headers, the text you want is 
scrolled off below the screen. Would it not make more sense to place the 
selected destination at the centre of the screen (if it is not already visible)?

Would it not be easy to implement a routine like:

if (desired-position is on visible screen) then
        do-nothing;
else
        move-to desired-position;
        screen-recenter;
endif;
