Title:
  Browser app auto-scaling feature on mobile causes issues.

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Some sites have a menu bar at the top, which appears or disappears
  depending if you scroll up or down... the presence or absence of this
  bar causes the browser app to change it's scaling, and this means that
  scrolling up/down while browsing results in the device continually re-
  rendering as it re-scales the page...

  This badly afffects google+ and presumably other google properties...
