In discussion with @bfgeek, the Chrome team can try to ship https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1082517 again, but if that breaks too much, can we revisit the spec'd behavior and try changing Gecko instead?

When testing https://bug1637511.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=9148082 I see the same behavior in Chrome and Safari, and being able to scroll to the text does seem like it's better.

Also, having WebKit on board with trying to change this seems important. cc @jensimmons @gsnedders

I see Safari and Firefox matching?
