Why can't you achieve the same by leaving window-start at its original
place (2) and setting vscroll to get the display you want, like this:

 +----------------------+
 |                      |
 |        image         |
 |                      |
 |                      |
+------window top--------------+--
||                      |      | ^
|+----------------------+      | | vscroll (negative)
|(2)=======line==========      | v
|==========line==========      |
|==========line==========      |

Did you try this method?
