New issue 8588 by satire.rutilant: Zooming in shifts the page upwards  
neglecting to set the part of the page that the user was viewing as point  
for zoomed text to be viewed. Zooming out shifts the page downwards with  
reference to what was being viewed.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8588

Chrome Version       : 2.0.169.0

URLs (if applicable) : N.A. (Not Applicable - This Defect Does not depend
on type of content rather on the amount of content in any page.)

Other browsers tested: Firefox 3.0.7
   Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
      Safari 3: -
     Firefox 3:OK
          IE 7: -

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Web Page should have enough content for scroll bars to be present(If you
zoom enough this applies to almost all pages except blank pages or the
pages having very little content i suppose).

2. Zooming in this page with zooming the part of the page you have scrolled
up to being the focus of your attention (Zomming In any way - clicking
option in menu or using crtl^+ key combo).

3.


What is the expected result?

The page gets Zoomed with the particular part that was being viewed on the
page being displayed on your screen zoomed (The content that was at the
start of the screen display area before zooming in is at the start of the
display area after zooming in).


What happens instead?

Zoom shifts the view to upper parts of the page (with reference to what was
being viewed in the page when stated zooming and for which it was being
zoomed). Now the viewer has to scroll down to the part intended to be
viewed again (and possibly check if further zooming is required by that
part of page which the viewer intended zoomed and the same thing all over
again...)

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
(Wow Screenshot um... Would do that except that it won't make things any
clearer. This calls for a video!!! I'm not up to a video.)

Let me do so with text (lame alternate I know...):
1. Say I was on page <url>http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?
can=1&q=label:helpwanted+type:bug&colspec=ID+Stars+Pri+Area+Type+Status+Sum
mary+Modified+Owner&x=mstone&y=area&cells=tiles</url>
2. I was looking at issue 3148, it being at the top of my screen view.
3. Now I zoomed in to have a more clearer view and whoa... It goes out of
scope I find it has shifted downwards...
4. I scroll to it again and repeat till my brain burns out & I start
reading a book instead (No zoom there too but that neither here nor there).

Thanks for fixing the issue with the taskbar in auto-hide mode not being
able to gain the uppercut on chrome (Was driving me Crazy)

With Regards
