SSMS - MiniMap overview

Does anyone know of a plugin for SSMS that works in a similar way to the 'MiniMap' on Sublime Text? I.e. offers an shrunk-down version of the contents of the query editor, like the one after this link:

Also: http://www.sublimetext.com/features

The bar on the left provides an overview of the entire text block, and by clicking and dragging, different sections of the text can be viewed.

It's a really useful tool to have in the text editor, and I was wondering if there was a plugin for SQL Server Management Studio that offers the same functionality.

SSMS 2016 now has this feature, you can read more about that here. In order to enable the minimap, right click on the scroll bar of a query in SSMS and then click Scroll Bar Options..., this will open the window below.

Scroll Bar Options

As highlighted, you will want to set the Behavior to Use map mode for vertical scroll bar, as well as setting any of the other settings, such as showing the preview tooltip.
