Description
If you type "gi" to focus the first text input on the page, in case scenario when the input field is not visible your screen at the moment of typing keystroke would be nice to implement automatic scroll to activated input filed position of a page.
In version 1.67 after type "gi" you must set scroll position manually (if input filed is outside the currently displayed user's view) or typing text into input field blindfold - you can't see what you typed.

Research direction
Start by locating the implementation of the "gi" command and reproduce the behavior with a text input outside the current viewport. Done means activating the first text input also scrolls it into the visible view so typed text can be seen.
