Bug ID: 478463
Summary: When sending a text, the screen scrolls all the way to
the top so only the last message sent or received is
visible.

SUMMARY
Problem with SMS Text app scroll hiding message history.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use the app
2.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
When you send a message, the screen automatically scrolls all the way (down?)
so the message you just typed goes all the way to the top. You can't see what
the other person just typed or any of the history unless you manually grab the
scroll bar and scroll back up (mouse wheel seems not to be working).
This is incredibly annoying, especially if you both type messages at the same
time or you haven't read their message yet. Essentially I have to keep
scrolling back up all the time unnecessarily. Also, sometimes I keep a running
conversation with someone and I have to scroll back up to read what was said,
also unnecessarily annoying. Nearly every other SMS application out there will
just let your messages scroll naturally and you can see as many as can fit on
the screen without scrolling around.
I have tried to find settings or preferences to disable this behaviour but
there seems to be no settings or preferences.
Also, as a side note, I can code but I can't (won't?) spin up the while entire
build system for this, is there a way I can contribute otherwise?
