Adding an oxide task, as contentX and contentY are currently read-only properties of the webview, so we will need to make them writable to properly be able to restore the current scroll position in a page.

We could probably get away with no changes in the oxide API if we get/set the scroll offset from the DOM with a userscript. Not the most elegant solution, but it has the advantage of not requiring any API change in oxide.
