[BRLTTY] Next and previous console commands lose position

[Lee Maschmeyer]

Hi folks,

If I use the computer keyboard to switch among consoles I always
return to the position I was on each time I go to a console. But if I
use brltty's commands to do this, each time I go to a console I go to
the cursor position. Personally, I'd rather go back to the same
reading position.

For example, if I'm on line 5 of console 2 and use the keyboard
commands Alt plus right arrow, Alt plus left arrow, I'm back on line
5. But if I use the Alva BC640's Next and Previous console commands
I'm back on console 2 but at the cursor position instead of line 5.

If this was a design decision then changing it constitutes an
incompatible change needing careful consideration and perhaps a change
in the documentation. But if it's inadvertent it might not be too hard
to adjust.

What do people think?
