Actually, that only happens with 'set view equal'.  It's a side effect 
of conflicting goals.  In a nutshell, the thing that's supposed to 
rotate keeps changing shape while rotating.  That means there is not 
really any center of rotation --- because the behaviour in this case is 
not actually a rotation.

Yes, please.  An actual patch (i.e. the product of a diff -c original 
changed) would be good.
