Description Adele Peterson 2006-02-06 13:49:01 PST
This is especially important for the new text fields, so that you can drag to select hidden text, and the overflow layer needs to scroll to reveal as you drag.

This patch will does leave an outstanding issue:

http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7774
Moving selection below bottom of overflow area causes selection to jump to end

This prevents autoscroll from working well with vertical scrolling in overflow areas.  On the plus side, this won't affect the new text fields.

Another loose end is:

Drag & drop doesn't cause editable overflow areas to autoscroll
