Sequence Diagram: participants at the top and bottom. How about in the middle?

I have a vertically long diagram so when I scroll vertically to the middle of the diagram, I don't see the top and bottom participants line.

Is is possible to somewhat make the participants appear in the middle too? (in addition to top and middle)

Can you give an example by means of some plantuml code or a n example at the plantuml web server http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/ ?

I just want to repeat the participant bar in the middle of the diagram

like this, the participants would be show in the middle (not just on top and bottom):

the ideal would be to add the participants anywhere by adding a code like "insert_participants"

Hello all,

Adapted from this answer:

A possible workaround is to add a user procedure as:

!procedure $insert_participants()
   rnote over a #FEFECE: a 
  /rnote over b #FEFECE: b
  /rnote over c #FEFECE: c
!endprocedure

And just to use it anywhere like that:

$insert_participants()
