Hi,

Vim exhibits the following behavior which seems like a bug to me:

1) Open a file in Vim
2) Open a few vertical panes of the same file (I do it very often to be able to insert imports/look at other implementations/etc without scrolling)
3) After some editing, reload the file with `:e` (Again, I do it very often if chances occur outside of Vim, I'm not sure if there's a better way to read in updates)

Expected behavior: if the file wasn't changed outside, nothing happens
Actual behavior: all *other* panes (apart from the pane which was focused) scroll to the top

Is it a bug? Is there a workaround for this?

George
