It would be nice if there was a "Go To" feature in the Workflow Config tool. When you have very long processes it would be much faster than scrolling. When remoting into a system sometimes scrolling can be difficult and slow.

What values would appear in the Go To box - line number, column number, plugin type?

My basic idea would be to quickly navigate a very long watch config. So with a Go To 500 the the window would scroll to line 500.

Not a bad idea.
That being said, I have found that most long processes are due to repeated items. Accordingly, when you have a process with hundreds of lines in it, you should really break it down into more manageable chunks and make use of the Gosub and Send To Process tasks.
