[plt-scheme] avoiding scrolling when using "stop" button in DrScheme

Right, sorry. I meant menu item.

FWIW, the break button triggers the raising of an exception, which is
why the cursor moves--- you're seeing the highlighting corresponding
to an exception being raised, just like when you misapply a primitive.
Kill, on the other hand, just terminates the program and doesn't have
a source location since there is no exception.

I often edit, run, stop, re-edit in the same place, and I always have to re-find the part of the file I was editing. I noticed that this behavior changed when I was running the profiler, but I'd like to be able to turn it off at other times.
