This bug only manifests with longer context help screens with no initial links.  See below on how to reproduce.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Bring up a context help with more than a screen of text before the first link
2. Focus the context help view
3. Switch to another application and then back using Alt-Tab
4. Notice that the context help view has scrolled down and focused the first link.

Happens in org.eclipse.ui.forms.widgets.FormText.handleFocusChange().

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
