OK, as discussed with fredrikh on IRC yesterday, the patch now accounts for 
multiple layout passes.
As far as the dir mtime issue goes, I think that actually falls into the range 
check case, that is, if the dir content changes, but the number of rows does 
not, it's probably ok to restore the scroll position. If the number of rows 
changes, then the scrollbar range changes and that is caught by the check in 
scrollToSavedPosition(). Same for the list view.

Now the only relevant issue is actually aborting the restore if scrolling the 
view between layout passes in a slow dir.
