bug#56393: Actually fix the long lines display bug

One problem with the current implementation that uses narrowing is that if you have the same buffer buffer shown in more than one window, the non-selected windows sometimes scroll "by themselves". To reproduce, visit, e.g., long-line.xml, say "C-x 2", then scroll with C-v: at some point the other window will also scroll, to reflect the narrowing.


Indeed. Another similar problem is that scroll-other-window does not work (or rather, it does, but the narrowing of the buffer is not updated).

By the way, that's a problem I see with the idea of computing the narrowing dynamically by multiplying window-body-width by window-total-height. If a buffer is displayed in two windows, a small one and a larger one, and we navigate the buffer in the smaller one, the larger one will display only a part of what it could display.
