The scroll-state of message display is lost when changing tabs, see below.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a folder and select a mail in it. The mail is displayed. The mail should be long enough not to fit in the message area of the 3-pane-window.
2. Right-click on another folder and "open in new tab".
3. Scroll down in the current mail.
4. Switch to the other tab.
5. Switch back to the previous tab.
Actual Results:  
The scroll state of the message is reset, i.e., the beginning of the message is displayed.

Expected Results:  
The scroll state should be as before.

A minor bit of state information is lost without the user's intention. Is this "dataloss"?
