If a message is opened in a tab and has been scrolled down the scroll position is not kept after reopening the tab. Instead the message is displayed at the top again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a message opened longer then the message pane in an own tab.
2. Scroll down at least one page.
3. Leave the tab (open any new one).
4. Switch back to tab from 1.
Actual Results:  
Message is again displayed at the beginning, not at scrolled position from 2.

Expected Results:  
Message in the tab is displayed at the scrolled position, as is the case in a browser with tabs.
