Description

## Bug report form
### Steps to reproduce
1. Join this group:

https://hypothes.is/groups/KggbKjaG/f2017-p0-us-history

2. Open this page:

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-41158281

3. Activate extension, toggle to group

### Expected behaviour
I should see the group's annotations.

### Actual behaviour
Sometimes for a second, sometimes for much longer, the groups annotations are rendered as orphans (though this is a presumably relatively static page)

### Browser/system information
Latest Chrome, Chrome extension.

### Additional details
The problem seems worse when linking from the group home page to a specific annotation and then viewing all annotations

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Chrome extension using the linked group and BBC page, first opening the page directly and then following a specific annotation from the group home page. Compare the annotation state while switching to the group; done means the group's annotations appear normally without being rendered as orphans.
