      I'm not sure this makes sense to any of you, but the idea is to be able to
      monitor the console output without having to "run" after the bottom by
      frantically pressing the "End" key. I guess it's just usability but it'd be
      really convenient the other way around (bottom-up)

      of course, if you look at the console output "after the fact" then it should be
      displayed in the natural (from top down) manner.

          I think a better way to achieve the same goal is to use JavaScript and so that
          the user's view port is always locked to the bottom.

          Upside down would be just too confusing, IMO.

          I definitely think it shouldn't go backwards - Hudson's 'real-time' console
          output that looks just like the console window is an awesome feature. +1 for
          javascript that scrolls to the bottom on update, if possible.
