Chrome v56 introduced a new feature called "scroll anchoring" which causes the scroll position to update if element content above the current scroll position has changed.
Since ui-grid-viewport updates the margin of the first line whenever a user is scrolling, scroll anchoring will cause it to get into a scroll loop and scroll indefinitely (i.e. scroll to the end of the grid)
