Scroll position resets when you rotate

Symptom: Regardless of where you are in an article, the scroll position often resets to the upper-left corner if you rotate the iPhone to change the page orientation.

Cause: This is a bug in Apple’s web rendering component. (Mobile Safari frequently exhibits the same problem since iPhone OS 2.0.)

Fix: I’m trying to make Instapaper work around this and maintain your position through rotations. I’m pretty sure I can. Expect a minor update in the near future to resolve this.
