Description
If you are editing a page with many large images and very little text, the preview pane will jump back to the top when you start to type. You then to have to scroll down in the preview page to see what the next image is that you are adding text to, and the moment you start to type in the editor page again, the preview pane jumps back to the top.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by editing a page with many large images and little text, then observe how the editor and preview panes synchronize scrolling. Start by locating the editor-to-preview update path; done means typing keeps the preview near the content corresponding to the cursor instead of returning to the top.
