However I just tested with someone in the office who feels confused when
autoscroll is used -> he feels like a new page has been opened and does not
know where the content of the page has gone, therefore he like the version
where tabs do not move better...
Popular vote, please get us out of this usability trap ;-)

After testing the 3 versions (autoscrolling where you
cannot see the tab,
autoscrolling where you can see the tabs, no autoscrolling when you click on
a tab) and after considering JV's arguments about anchors and my personal
usability preferences, I like the version with autoscrolling and visible
tabs best. Not having to scroll is indeed a good thing since it saves the
user some time but since tabs can still be viewed clearly it does not
confuse him.

I definitely prefer this.
From my POV reducing the need of manual scrolling is a good thing.
When I see the tabs at the bottom of my viewport, if I want to see the
attachments, I click on "attachments" I'd prefer not to have to scroll
to see a maximum of them.
BTW I understand that the "abrupt" scrolling can be disappointing but
unfortunately scriptaculous "smooth scrolling" (nice sliding
transition) is broken in the version we use (the last one).
