Unfortunately it causes a useability issue in general use, try the
following:

- Open a page that has vertical scrolling
- Scroll down a touch with the scroll bar (Or mouse wheel)
- Press the up arrow key on your keyboard
- You immediately jump to the bottom of the document and sit there
  thinking "whoa - what just happened"

This is possibly a mozilla bug - I didn't have time to think about it, I
just patched my ephy as attached ....
