Thank you Jim for looking into the causes of this bug (or different behavior of
GTK3).
I am regularly using the "Manage Changes" feature and I can elaborate a bit
what would be the expected behavior (spoiler: it should be like qt/x11/win):

Use case (my standard use case using "Manage Changes"):
* When I review a long document that contains many changes, I usually open the
"Manage Changes" window and go through the changes one by one as they appear in
the list. I may accept, reject or alter/edit the change. When accepting or
rejecting, the 'bug' is not relevant, because it works as expected. However,
when altering/editing the change (or maybe correcting a typo somewhere in the
text), I expect to exactly continue there in the list of changes where I was
before. However, the 'bug' causes a jump to the top of the list which doesn't
make sense at all. The jump absolutely destroys the work flow, because I have
to search again the place in the list where I wanted to continue. --> The GTK3
VCL version should keep the selection like qt/x11/win.
