Comment (by stephdau):

 Back fromvacation. :)

 Added 27440-scrolling-content.2.diff, keeping on building on tellyworth's
 work in 27440-scrolling-content.diff, to implement nacin's latest
 requests.

 The new patch:
 * matches the header more with the directory's (no overlaid tabs,
 BuddyPress and Akismet baselines achieved)
 * makes header+tabs+content+fyi scrollable, by including the 2 former
 inside the new scrollable div Alex added.

 Known issues to deal with (see last 2 screenshot in link below):
 * title h2 doesn't scroll along with the rest (fixed pos?)
 * the "install now" footer overlay scrolls when one reaches the bottom of
 the content, same goes for the background content (latter also mentioned
 by celloexpressions above).
 * something along the way (likely the scrollable wrapper div) made the
 content column too narrow in mobile views, ad should be widened to use the
 whole width.

 Have to go for a while, but will get in touch with Alex once back, and
 keep going at it with him.
