I also believe such a feature would be nice. And in case you actually want
to see the same file from the beginning, pressing "home" (correctme) takes
care of it rapidly. Furthermore, it generally fits in the feature of e2 of
remembering and preselecting the directory previously accessed.

I changed F3 as soon as I noticed that it was F4 for viewing. And assigned
Vim in Terminal for F4. I agree that the default F3 binding be changed.
