Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Do a search
2. Click on a permalink surrounded by dynamic content (replies, url previews, images). I don't have a good repro example yet.
3. Observe that as forward-pagination occurs, the permalink gets scrolled upwards, until it can easily end up off the top of the page
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
Permalinks should be scroll-locked while the surrounding context loads.
#### What happened instead?
They can get pushed off the top of the page
