Bug Description
This is mainly usability related; I would like an option to prevent Gwibber from automatically moving to the top of the stream when new messages arrive. This makes it difficult to read and follow all of the messages as they appear - especially if I am away from my computer for 15 minutes. Additionally, when I am scrolling through past messages, when Gwibber fetches new messages, the app again snaps to the top of the stream, causing me to lose my place and miss messages. If Gwibber could optionally stack new messages on top of my current place in the stream, that would go a long way to improving using Gwibber on a continual basis.
Thank you!
