Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2014-10-22 00:00:16 UTC
Proximate cause is https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/167446/ , it was working before that change.

What seems to be going on is that there's a browser bug in Chrome that causes the inspector's body to immeasurably have a slightly greater height if the opacity of the Open button is not equal to 1. That's why this bug is only reproducible in creation mode, and the scrollbar goes away as soon as you type: the Open button is initially disabled (opacity:0.5), then enabled when you type something (opacity:1).

If you want entertainment, inspect an enabled Open button, add opacity:0.999; to it and toggle it off and on a few times.
