Hitting an internal anchor link in an iframe shouldn't scroll the main window unless this is necessary in order to make the anchor visible.

Created attachment 17023 [details] A simple page with a small iframe Hitting an internal link from the content menu shouldn't scroll the main window since the iframe is completely visible (as long as your main window is of reasonable size).

Created attachment 17024 [details] A simple page with a long iframe Hitting one of the lower links from the content menu - e.g. "Weblinks" - requires the main window to scroll to the lower edge of the iframe in order to make its lower region completely visible. However, there is no need for the main window to scroll below the lower edge of the iframe, as it does at the moment. (Hitting one of the upper links from the content menu - e.g. "Anker auf Seeschiffen" - scrolls the main window in such a way that the upper edge of the iframe coincides with the upper edge of the main window in order to make visible as much content as possible. This is the expected behaviour.)
