I think we should revert the change to set
make-cursor-line-fully-visible locally on the emacs-26 branch, and
install this patch instead.  But on master, I think we need both this
patch and a special function that sets make-cursor-line-fully-visible
nil in non-last windows under follow-mode, because that's definitely
what follow-mode wants.

WDYT?
