Subject: [PATCH] Scroll just-submitted comment to viewport top with bottom
 spacer
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

After a reply is sent, find the new user message via its anchorId and
scrollIntoView with block:start so the submitted comment lands at the
top of the viewport — giving space below to watch the response stream
in. Also render a 40dvh spacer below the thread so that scroll is
available even right after posting.
