The use case is precise "scroll up" and "scroll down" actions.

Without this, a "scroll up" may result in entries below
the current view being returned.  Without this, a "scroll down"
may result in entries above the current view being returned.

Note only do I believe this feature should be added, that the
document needs to be rewritten to to use precise target
entry selection (by DN) for scrolling.
