Based on the description, I think it's redisplay that's scrolling,
because the mouse click sets point in a line that is visible only
partially.  One can make sure by invoking trace-redisplay before
clicking (but make sure you have blink-cursor-mode and
global-eldoc-mode turned off before you do that, to avoid unnecessary
redisplay cycles that will muddy the waters).
