Feature request: keep current line in the middle of the visible table #846

Hi there, when translating large files and sorting the source strings by (source code) file order, adjacent lines usually have a common context. Currently, when translating po files, the currently highlighted string is at the bottom of the pane, which means the next lines are not visible and we are missing out on valuable context. The current workaround is to stop writing, scroll a couple of lines down to see what the context is, and then continue translating. This quickly becomes a hassle and feels like a waste of time. Is it possible to have a way to keep the current line fixed in the middle (or the top) of the two-column pane? (see attached screenshot) Thank you poedit_current_line_in_middle_of_pane
