Description

Analogous to #97 I would like to see the same functionality extended to List views.

Currently lists scroll to the absolute top every time they have new statuses that they load. This is annoying because it loses the read position and reverses the read direction.

Because I spend most of my time in a list, I'd like to see a List view have feature parity with any other timeline view.

Research direction

Start by comparing the List view with the analogous behavior described in issue #97. Reproduce loading new statuses while scrolled in a list, then verify that the existing read position and scroll direction are preserved instead of jumping to the top.
