Consider this use case: I open a pdf because I need to search something in 
there. Not the first time I open this pdf, so it gets open somewhere after the 
beginning of the document. Which means there is a good chance that I reach the 
end of the document without finding what I was looking for. That's why I think 
the "continue from beginning?" dialog can be annoying.
