Scroll position when changing agent tabs

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

When switching AI tabs, the scroll wheel often scrolls back to the top of the chat.
Forcing the user to scroll back to the bottom of the chat.

It is annoying and slows down user workflow, especially when working on large projects.

Steps to Reproduce

Open a few AI chat tabs.
Chat enough with it so the scroll reaches it the maximum length (before loading chat history).
Do that for all open tabs.
Switch between them and the scroll position will reset to the top.

Expected Behavior

Scroll position should be at the bottom.

Operating System
