Bug 89773 [Viewers] Search keeps showing selection while results still being added
build I20050330-0500 - do a search that will generate many results (refs to PartInitException in my case) - as the results are being added, select one of the first matches, then use the scroll wheel or scroll bar to scroll down and see the results as they come in - it keeps jumping back to show the selection I hope it's not the basic viewer refresh code that's doing this (I don't think so).

     * Adds the given element to this list viewer.
     * If this viewer does not have a sorter, the element is added at the end;
     * otherwise the element is inserted at the appropriate position.
     * <p>
     * This method should be called (by the content provider) when a single element 
     * has been added to the model, in order to cause the viewer to accurately
     * reflect the model. This method only affects the viewer, not the model.
     * Note that there is another method for efficiently processing the simultaneous
     * addition of multiple elements.
     * </p>
