[whatwg] Proposing: "autoscroll" event

[James Greene]

So, to that end, what about just adjusting the spec for the "hashchange"
event to also fire when the page is initially loaded if the URL contains a
fragment identifier (hash)?  The other scenarios mentioned would already be
covered by the "hashchange" event.

Sincerely,
    James Greene
