Smart JScrollPane follows output text

I have a smart JScrollPane but unlike every other solution out there I would like to know if the view port can follow (scrolling up with) the viewed component (JTextArea) if the scroll pane is not at the bottom AND if the text buffer is full. Fully functional code snippet included. Thanks.

public class ScrollingJTextAreaExample extends JFrame {
    // Worker thread to help periodically append example messages to JTextArea
    Timer timer = new Timer();
    // Merely informative counter, will be displayed with the example messages
    int messageCounter = 0;
    // GUI components
    JScrollPane jScrollPane;
    MyJTextArea jTextArea;

    public ScrollingJTextAreaExample() {
        initComponents(); // Boiler plate GUI construction and layout

        // Configure JTextArea to not update the cursor position after
        // inserting or appending text to the JTextArea. This disables the
        // JTextArea's usual behavior of scrolling automatically whenever
        // inserting or appending text into the JTextArea: we want scrolling
        // to only occur at our discretion, not blindly. NOTE that this
        // breaks normal typing into the JTextArea. This approach assumes
        // that all updates to the ScrollingJTextArea are programmatic.
        DefaultCaret caret = (DefaultCaret) jTextArea.getCaret();
        caret.setUpdatePolicy(DefaultCaret.NEVER_UPDATE);

        // Schedule a task to periodically append example messages to jTextArea
        timer.schedule(new TextGeneratorTask(), 250, 250);

        // This DocumentListener takes care of re-scrolling when appropriate
        Document document = jTextArea.getDocument();
        document.addDocumentListener(new ScrollingDocumentListener());
    }

    // Boring, vanilla GUI construction and layout code
    private void initComponents() {
        jScrollPane = new javax.swing.JScrollPane();
        jTextArea = new MyJTextArea();
        setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        jScrollPane.setViewportView(jTextArea);
        getContentPane().add(jScrollPane, java.awt.BorderLayout.CENTER);
        setSize(320, 240);
        setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    }

    // ScrollingDocumentListener takes care of re-scrolling when appropriate
    class ScrollingDocumentListener implements DocumentListener {
        public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
            maybeScrollToBottom();
        }

        public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
            maybeScrollToBottom();
        }

        public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
            maybeScrollToBottom();
        }

        private void maybeScrollToBottom() {
            JScrollBar scrollBar = jScrollPane.getVerticalScrollBar();
            boolean scrollBarAtBottom = isScrollBarFullyExtended(scrollBar);
            boolean scrollLock = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit()
                    .getLockingKeyState(KeyEvent.VK_SCROLL_LOCK);
            if (scrollBarAtBottom && !scrollLock) {
                // Push the call to "scrollToBottom" back TWO PLACES on the
                // AWT-EDT queue so that it runs *after* Swing has had an
                // opportunity to "react" to the appending of new text:
                // this ensures that we "scrollToBottom" only after a new
                // bottom has been recalculated during the natural
                // revalidation of the GUI that occurs after having
                // appending new text to the JTextArea.
                EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {

                                scrollToBottom(jTextArea);
                            }
                        });
                    }
                });
            }

    }


    public class MyJTextArea extends JTextArea {
        DefaultCaret caret;
        static final int BUFFERSIZE = 100;
