Is there any way to stop VisualEditor scrolling the page down when inserting a hyperlink, as in this screenshot: http://prntscr.com/h34uht? If not, can there at least be an option made for it? It's slower to work with and harder to immediately click on the first result.

which browser are you experiencing this with ? And have you tried disabling gadgets/userscripts and browser extensions ?

@TheDJ It is my understanding that this is a feature of VisualEditor. When you attempt to insert a hyperlink, the page scrolls down to fit the entire dropdown menu on the screen. It also moves when the dropdown menu is closed. This happens in any browser or operating system (bare Chrome- and Firefox-tested).
