sidescrolloff, but only for long lines?

I use sidescrolloff to make sure I can see several columns ahead of the cursor
on long lines. However, even when a line is short enough to fit entirely on the
screen, vim still scrolls even though there is no need to.

Is there a way to turn off horizontal scrolling when a line doesn't need it?

For example:

:set sidescrolloff=10
:set nowrap

On a 80-character-wide terminal, with this text:

This is a very long long long long long long long long long long long sentence.

Putting the cursor on the last character of that line makes vim scroll to the
point where "This is a " is not visible. Since the line can fit entirely within
the bounds of the screen, I'd like it to not scroll.

Is there a way to limit horizontal scrolling to only scroll when there is more
of the line to be seen?

Thanks,

Steve
