I strongly prefer the panning model to the scrolling model. It's so much
easier to use I wish it were available everywhere. Are you really asking for
some indication of what part of the image is visible? Scroll bars provide
that at the cost of a crappy interface, but there's no reason at all why a
panning interface can't give you some indication of what subset of the
entire object you're viewing.
