Description

When I:

  1. Enter scroll mode and scroll up inside a pane
  2. Move the focus to another pane, exit scroll mode and do something else
  3. Go back to the scrolled up pane

I should be placed in scroll mode again.

This is so that I don't try to scroll and then lose my position because the pane resets back to its bottom most position.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the scroll mode state in the pane handler. Ensure that when focus returns, the scroll mode is restored.
