There was a option called Pivot Last . It sets the rotation center for rotating the scene to the last location the brush was used. This was very helpfull when sculptin on large objects. I would be very tankfull if it would be ported to blender 2.7
When in sculpt mode, press Numpad period ( Numpad . ) or View -> Align View -> View Selected
Or if you need this all the time, go to File -> User Preferences -> Interface panel and enable “Rotate Around Selection”
and the view will use your brush stroke as its rotation new center.
or just enable “auto depth” and disable “rotate around selection” and you’re always rotating around the point under the mouse cursor. Works in every mode not just sculpting.
