Description
Describe the bug
If we put the ReDoc in an outer container with the following css style, the sidemenu doesn't automatically activate/expand anymore when scrolling:
<div style="position: absolute; top: 100px;left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; overflow-y: auto;">
<div id="redoc-container" ></div>
</div>
Also, the URL history stopped updating when scrolling.
It stops working when the overflow-y: auto/scroll; and position: absolute show up in the outer container at the same time.
Expected behavior
The side menu should automatically activate/expand and history should be auto-updated when scrolling, even if the outer container is absolute and scroll overflow.

Reproduce the issue with the absolute, overflow-y:auto outer container shown in the report and a ReDoc instance. Trace the scroll handling used for sidemenu activation and URL history updates; done means both continue working while scrolling inside that container.
