OK, I can see the problem too:

    - make sure you have a sufficiently small frame (with Robert's
      test file, a frame of about 30 lines long should do it)
    - open the first headline
    - open the second headline with the table
    - navigate to somewhere inside the table
    - C-c '
    - navigate among the formulas
    - see cursor jump in the original buffer between a row of the table
      and the end of the buffer

If the frame is bigger than about 50 lines (so that after C-c ', it's
big enough to show the whole table, including the formula and the empty
line underneath it) then I don't see the problem.
