On the contrary, it does.  The pixel-scrolling code works on a line with
a line-prefix because of it.

This suggests that it will not work for the usecase that the option was
intended to support, because the position `line-beginning-position'
might not be on the start of the visual line.  Trust me, I tried quite a
few options including precisely this before implementing this option.

Closing.
