Description

🌈 Feature

The editor should have overscroll-behavior: none to prevent navigation swipes and "wobbling" on Sandboxes that involve wheel gestures. This seems to have been done previously with https://github.com/codesandbox/codesandbox-client/pull/2323, however this CSS appears to have since been removed.

A temporary fix is to set overflow: hidden for the document's body but this may create other problems in certain projects.

Research direction

Locate the editor's current styling and compare it with the behavior described in pull request #2323. Apply the requested overscroll behavior without relying on the body's temporary overflow workaround, then verify that wheel gestures no longer cause navigation swipes or wobbling in the affected Sandboxes.
