VisualEditor scrolls down the page when inserting a hyperlink
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

When you attempt to insert a hyperlink, the page scrolls down to fit the entire dropdown menu on the screen. It also moves when the dropdown menu is closed. It is my understanding that this is a feature, but it's slower to work with and harder to immediately click on the first result, and also harder to return to typing after exiting the dropdown menu.
