           Summary: strange scrollback position reset behavior
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: majinsniper gmx de


Version:           1.9 (SVN Revision 695870, 2007-08-03) (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 4.1.2 
OS:                Linux

When running a process with continuous output like a compilation process and the keyboard (shift+arrow up, ...) is used to browse the scrollback buffer, the position is set back to the bottom on the next line of output. When using the scrollbar or scrollwheel instead, the position is preserved.
(A simple "while [[ 1==1 ]]; do sleep 1; echo; done" produces such output.)
Is this behavior intentional? If it is, could there be an option to change both kinds of scrollback browsing behavior added somewhere?

Keep up the great work!
