Research direction

Reproduce the issue on an iPad with multiple PDF tabs using the linked test PDF, then trace how a tapped PDF link selects and updates tabs. Done means only the tab containing the tapped link navigates, while the other PDF tabs remain on their current pages; verify this behavior with a regression test if the relevant test area is found.
