Research direction
Start by reproducing the autocomplete scrolling behavior with Angular 5.1.2 and Angular Material 5.0.2 in Chrome, then trace the autocomplete dropdown positioning entry point. Done means the dropdown remains attached to the bottom of its input and follows it while the page scrolls.
