Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When you press Ctrl+Z/Y the line where you are currently editing might not be in view. This is quite confusing because you can't see what is going on.
Describe the solution you'd like
The content should scroll to where there cursor currently is.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Maybe block Ctrl+Z/Y when out of view, but that is also not great.
