I'm guessing if we fix my test case, your test case will be also fixed. But
yeah, I'm not sure yet, but let me explain my current understanding.

I think the broken content in your test case happens because the render layer
of the inner most element shrinks to match the height of the window (this is
the right behavior), but the inner most div element doesn't shrink. As the
paint result of the inner most element will be clipped by its layer, the
content isn't painted when we scroll. If the inner most div element shrinks,
the inner most element will have the scrollbar and the window won't have the
scrollbar. Then, if we don't have scrollbar of the browser window, it means we
won't see the clipped contents as we cannot scroll the body element. Instead,
we will see the scrollbar of the inner most element and we should be able to
scroll the texts with this scrollbar properly.

But I might be wrong. I need more investigation. Thanks for your comment!
