What would you expect to see, that would cause you think it was "an
issue"?  When Emacs is keyboard-driven, typing text and scrolling
commands seldom happen in such a quick succession that hitting end of
buffer while scrolling would discard text you typed meanwhile.  And
even if it did, how would you know for sure you actually typed it?
