This is not as simple as this;  pre-redisplay-function is called with
an argument, a list of windows that are to be redisplayed (in this
case I expect to see only one window in the list).  The function
should move the overlay in that window using that window's point
position.  By contrast, the functions you tried don't accept any
arguments, and hl-line-highlight assumes that it is called in the
selected window.

Thanks.
