Hi, i like this function! I have often lost track which file i am currently looking at. Especially with long files.

But i noticed following minor thing: When selecting a new commit, for a split second the first file name is selected and then the "Comments" entry is selected. The flickering is more visible when you hold down the mouse on the up/down button of the "Lines of code" field.

Can this flickering be avoided?

Thanks, Greetings Peter
