Well, it could certainly be optional.  Most of the time I am not in
mutt, but doing other work.  So I was wanting it to scroll the index
for me so I could at just glance and see what the new mail was.
Perhaps it should only do this when the index was already showing
what was previously the last message, i.e. don't move it from
message 1 to message 678.
