Details

When pasting external content from a word processor (like MS Word or OpenOffice Writer), the compose window automatically scrolls back to the top. The user is forced to reposition the cursor whenever this happens. Steps to reproduce: Compose a multi-screen email in HTML format (bug does not occur in plain text format). Sample text: http://www.lipsum.com/feed/html Write a few lines of text in your word procesor and bold/italicize some of it. Copy the text and paste it near the bottom of your email. Expected: text is simply pasted in, with no repositioning of the window or cursor. Actual: cursor/window are repositioned to the top of the message.
