Scroll less than one-line when in Soft word wrap mode

Hello!,
Let me begin by saying I love JEdit and use it on all my systems. Thanks to all who have contributed to this great open-source tool. A+
But to the feature request...
It would be great to have the ability to view only part of a line when in soft word wrap mode. When using JEdit I most always use the soft word wrap mode during composition, and it becomes a bit annoying when the buffer "jumps" long wrapped lines when scrolling. Also, sometimes it is the case where I would like to read the last few (wrapped) lines while simultaneously viewing a line at the other end of the buffer. It is disappointing to have screen space for this, yet be limited by the editor. I can imagine some complexity might arise out of combining this feature with window-width word wrapping, but I would gladly sacrifice window-width word wrapping for smooth word-wrap scrolling.
Again, thanks for the great tool,
