Is this possible in skinning: list scrolls, selection doesn't?

Sorry for the goofy title, trying to get across the idea in a few words.

I am wondering if anyone knows if if such a thing as I describe below is possible in Kodi:

The easiest way to describe it is this mockup gif: http://i.imgur.com/00MGRJe.gifv

Basically, when scrolling down, the list moves up, and your highlighted section moves up the screen, until it reaches 3 from the top (I don't show this in the mock up, but I will build it if anyone is interested in implementing), and then it holds there, and the list continues to scroll "under" the highlight.

Ideally scrolling up would be the opposite, so you always have three lines of context in the direction away from where you are headed, and 6 lines of context in the direction you are scrolling to. It boggles my mind that the default behavior is to give you zero context about what is coming next! Perhaps this is a limitation of Kodi? I haven't found a skin yet that does otherwise. . . does anyone know of one?

you can use a fixedlist container for that:

Do not PM or e-mail Team-Kodi members directly asking for support.
Always read the Forum rules, Kodi online-manual, FAQ, Help and Search the forum before posting.
