Note, this scroll DOES NOT happen without find&replace dialog. In order to see 
the scroll you have to bring it up.

1, 2, 3, 4 denotes cells, space is used only to make the drawing more clear

---- top edge of view of the document (not of the document) --------------
111111111 222222222222222

333333333 444444444444444
333333333 444444444444444
333333333 444444444444444

all four cells are fully visible (i.e. no part of them are out of the view)!

Now I select text in 4 from bottom to up, nothing happens, I reach to left top 
corner (or I can even be in the middle of the height) and I move the cursor 
left to 3.

Immediately after I move the cursor to 3, selection switches from 
text-selection to cell-selection, 4 and 3 are selected AND also whole document 
is scrolled in such way that now 3 and 4 are top cells (1 and 2 are out of the 
view).

This is very disturbing because I prefer focusing on selecting:
a) there was no reason to scroll (all cell were visible)
b) the behaviour is not consistent -- without find&replace there is no such 
scroll

MRU->OS: does not only happen with tables, also with floating text. When the
"Find & replace" dialog is open ang reaches into a selection which was made
AFTER the dialog was opened, the view will jump.
