It seems to me that the text entry area should grow in height until it hits a pre-defined maximum size. When it grows in height by N pixels, the chat history window should scroll down by N pixels as well so that the last visible line of chat history never changes. In no case should the entire chat window change size or position due to text being entered into the text entry field.
