+1 for scroll lock
Using a TopComponent registry listener or maybe an editor registry
listener, any non-focus editor window editing the same file as the
focused/current editor could be locked. You could probably do it with a
small plugin.

I can't think of a use case where you want a non-focused *editor window*
jumping around on it's own due to a swing implementation issue.

When I make changes in the same file in the main NB window the
floated window doesn't stay where it was, but scrolls to where I'm
making edits in the main window.
Is that the expected behavior?
That's long standing (like forever) behavior, probably a swing issue.
IIRC, the "cloned" window only scrolls when lines are added/removed
earlier in the file than the position being displayed.
jVi fixed it (back in NB-6.x I think, or maybe even when jVi was only
on JBuilder); posted an issue but NB wasn't interested in the fix.
See FreezeViewport.java in the jVi sources.
