Environment:
- Preview version:1.7.0

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. preview lots of box files on same webpage
2. Programmtically focus on the viewer after it loads
```
// Programmtically focus on the viewer after it loads
if (this.viewer && this.viewer.containerEl) {
this.viewer.containerEl.focus();
}
```
3. I am not sure whether it is a good experience in this situation, because it will make the screen jump

What is the expected behavior? (Screenshots can be helpful here)
**I don't want to focus on the viewer after it loads, so could you please

Research direction

Start by tracing where viewer.containerEl is focused after the viewer loads, using the reported Chrome or Firefox reproduction with multiple Box files on one page. Done means the focus behavior can be disabled through a documented method or parameter and the page no longer jumps when that option is used.
