 (from a comment on #2351)

 The auto-scrolling should only happen when the scroll position of the
 window was at its maximum before a new message gets added. That is, If I
 scroll up a few lines to read something, new messages should not reset my
 scroll position to the bottom, making it impossible for me to catch up on
 or revisit past conversation. This is a fundamental that a lot of chat
 clients got wrong for a long long time. Let's not make that mistake.
