If cookies were mandatory to implement, always provided by
the servers, always returned by the client, and the
specification stated that the server must ensure continuity
between scroll up/down events, the cookie mechanism might
work.

However, even with this, VLV still wouldn't provide a 
precise mechanism to select a particular target entry.
