One of the consequences of the widget jumping that is bothering me right
now is when a new tab is spawned if you have only one, the input area
shrinks and the scroll position, which was formerly at the end of the
conversation shifts, so that I'm no longer scrolled to the bottom and
new updates don't autoscroll into view.
