The report location is not remembered. Create a report that is a few pages long. Scroll down to the bottom of it, for example. Select another tab. Then select the original report. Note the view is now at the top of the report! When flipping back and forth between a (long) report and a register, this is very annoying! I would expect to see the *exact* same view when returning to a tab.
I am just trying to recall what i observed when I last looked at this bug. The view changes because it focuses the next link! This seems to be a gtk_widget_child_focus initiated by the GtkNotebook which gets passed down to the GtkHTMLEmbed(?) widget. But it has GtkDirectionType GTK_DIR_TAB_FORWARD (or BACKWARD too, dont know). This causes the gtkhtml widget to focus the next link. Clearly, we need some fix for that. Next please.
Just checking my bugs to see if they are fixed, obsolete, or still applicable. Andreas, I think you are correct. If I move the focus to the bottom of the report, then when I move to another tab and then back again, my view is still at the bottom of the report. So this issue remains at large. However, it is of lower priority than others I have reported, especially now that I know about Window > New Window with Page :-).
I forgot to mention: I'm currently at 2.2.4.
