Description
It should be possible to set a max height on a TextareaAutosize and then scroll after it reaches that height. But the component hides overflow in the style tag, so it’s impossible.

Research direction
Start by locating the TextareaAutosize component and the style tag that sets overflow. Check how its height and overflow are currently derived, then verify that a configured max height allows scrolling once that height is reached. Done means the component can both cap its height and scroll additional content.
