openaction is there for a while, the trick is (at least that is 
something that acrobat does when you change the doc prefs) is do do a 
'goto first page and use a fith with a -32K offset, which to me looks 
like a hack;

(the best way to find solution is to see what acrobat itself does and 
then look into the saved file -)

so, i can imagine latex to do an open action like that

however, in context openactions can be more complex, like:

openaction={page(10),FitWidth,startmovie(whatever)}

so, if one really wants a fith -infty than we need to make a special def 
for that (but we have FitWidth)
