I'm using Firebug 1.6X.0a17 with Firefox 4.0b1. When I click into a
scrollable panel in Firebug (such as the HTML, CSS, etc. panel or the
Style, Computed, etc. panel, anything you can scroll really) and
scroll it, it will only update the upper or lower part of the panel,
depending on whether I scroll up or down. The rest of the panel with
stay as it was before scrolling. If I click into one panel, the scroll
another without clicking into it, scrolling works fine.

Since this is a rather vague description, I made a screenshot showing
this (see link below). If you look at it, note first that the scroll
bar is about halfway down the page. Then look at the content of the
panel: Only the part I highlighted yellow is actually showing what
it's supposed to show, the rest still shows the first lines of the
content.

I am rather surprised nobody would have reported this since it is a
rather obvious problem. Before 'officially' filing it as a bug, I
wanted to mention it here since I'm not sure it's actually a bug.

I searched for it on the bug tracker too but didn't find anything. Can
anyone confirm this?

This is a Firefox problem and I reported that here:

It appears to be working with Firefox 4b2. I haven't experienced the
described problems yet, anyway.
