Switching tabs loses vertical scroll position

Hi, this bug has just been driving me crazy ever since I
started using UR.. I'm pretty sure I've reported it
before, but I guess it hasn't been isolated yet.
Apologies if this is considered a (mis-)feature, but it
feels like a bug from my perspective.

When you click from tab A to tab B, then click back to
tab A it will scroll the view back to the top of the Info
Item. Often I deal with lengthy Info Items so this is
obviously a pain.

The Opera web browser saves vertical scroll position in
ALL forms of "history".. in memory and in session state.

Firefox only more recently got on the ball with better
history features, but nevertheless this kind of
functionality is the norm now, so I think UR would do
well to duplicate it.

Another, perhaps related bug is that about half the time
the vertical scroll bar will be rendered greyed-out for
lengthy, multi-page Info Items.... it is still possible to
navigate down using the keyboard, however.

Thanks for listening
