I've discovered an oddity in the behavior of the Google Translate tool (Display mode: inline, Dropdown only) web widget in Webkit (r102809). I added the translate snippet to a site I'm working on, and now when I visit said page it scrolls itself down to near the bottom of the page if the URL I navigated to has a pound sign (#) at the end. I have no anchor links or anything near the bottom, and to demonstrate this oddity in action, I created a simple page with only some lorem ipsum text and the Google translate snippet. If you visit http://davidhuerta.me/google_translate_test/# (on a Webkit build), your scrollbar will be moved to near the bottom, despite it having no reason to. If you visit http://davidhuerta.me/google_translate_test/ the scroll position won't be affected. Non-Webkit browsers Opera and Firefox (I've only tested in OS X) are not affected, it seems.

Also happens in Safari 5.1, so not a regression.
