C-x $ with no argument, disabling selective display, should not
move the cursor. For example, with selective display enabled,
putting the cursor at an interesting question in the Emacs FAQ
(etc/FAQ) and hitting C-x $ should display the answer along with
the question. Instead, as it stands, both go way, way, off the
screen.
I find this diff makes set-selective-display both more useful (I
perfectly agree with Paul Rubin) and aesthetically pleasant (try M-2
C-x $ in the FAQ while you are in the middle of an answer).
