Description Daniele Metilli 2007-01-18 18:27:27 PST 
After r18951 (the fix for "flashy" selection in textareas), if you select some text in a textarea the page scrolls up. You can try this here in Bugzilla:

1 - Scroll down (a scroll bar must appear in the window).
2 - Type something in the textarea and select it.
3 - The page scrolls up.

I have found this bug using a trackpad, so I'm not sure it's the same with a mouse.
If it's trackpad-specific, it may also be related to bug 10747.

Not trackpad specific, happens with my mouse too.

r- for lack of test case. Probably possible to make one with eventSender.

I started this layout test.  But I just can't seem to trigger autoscroll with the eventSender.
