In the case where scroll-snap-type is specified for the scroll container, the
scroll-padding is also factored into in ScrollFrameHelper::ComputeScrollSnapInfo
which is called via ScrollFrameHelper::ScrollToWithOrigin. It doesn't double
the scroll-padding value, but it's actually redundant, we should avoid it.
We could separate the functionality of ScrollToWithOrigin, one is to scroll
to a given element, the other is to scroll to a given position. The former will
be used for Element.scrollIntoElement and relevant stuff, the latter will be
used for Element.scrollTo and relevant stuff. That's being said, as of now, we
have still the old scroll snap implementation, so the separation will introduce
complexity, the separation should be done once after the old implementation
removed.
There are 9 call sites of nsIPresShell::ScrollContentIntoView:
nsIPresShell::GoToAnchor
nsIPresShell::ScrollToAnchor
Element::ScrollIntoView
We definitely needs scroll-padding and scroll-margin for these functions.
nsCoreUtils::ScrollTo
This is used for Accesible::ScrollTo which scrolls to a given accesible node,
probably we should behave as what Element::ScrollIntoView does.
Accessible::DispatchClickEvent
Similar to the above, similated various mouse events on a given target node.
PresShell::EventHandler::PrepareToUseCaretPosition
PresShell::EventHandler::GetCurrentItemAndPositionForElement
Both are for context menu, we shouldn't consider scroll-padding and
scroll-margin.
nsFormFillController::SetPopupOpen
This is used for autocompletion popup, we shouldn't consider scroll-padding
and scroll-margin.
nsFocusManager::ScrollIntoView
This is bit unfortunate, we should use scroll-padding and scroll-margin
depending on call site of this function. Bug 1535232 is for this case.
cssom-view/scrollIntoView-scrollPadding.html which has some tests that is
actually testing scroll-padding with scrollIntoView passes with this change.
The reftest in this change is a test case that the browser navigates to an
element with specifying the anchor to the element.
