Steps to reproduce:

On sites using background image loading items inserted before the cursor position cause the cursor position to move.  On many news sites this causes the link to move just as the user clicks resulting in no click or worse clicking on the wrong link.



Expected results:

After the initial content is loaded, content inserted above the cursor position should cause the view point on the page to scroll down so that the portion visible to the user does not move unless the user scrolls.
that's the website's design issue.
