I can reproduce with 2.38 too, but it's maybe a bit less noticeable.

Also reproducible on WPE, and on Mac, in Safari Technology Preview 164 and on trunk. Not reproduced in stable Safari 16.1.

position:fixed inside overflow scroll. Importantly, it's jittery even when JavaScript is disabled, which means it's a scrolling tree bug.

This didn't regress in 2.39.90 and it's cross-platform issue.

The page has a “position:fixed” element inside overflow:scroll, but with a transformed ancestor, so the “position:fixed” behaves more like “position:absolute”. But for some reason we don’t reposition it on the scrolling thread correctly.

I think we need to educate the scrolling tree about fixed elements that don’t behave like fixed (because of an ancestor transform), but whose containing block is still the viewport.
