Autolinker multiple matches unclear of match

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

I use autolinker: I select "Selective Replace" (basically every time).
Sometimes when I use this, it has multiple articles it matches with. So I have to select which article is meant to be referenced.
  However, there is a problem: Usually: the interface will highlight the relevent text which is going to be replaced. Great. But if the content box has more content that will fit in the box, it won't automatically scroll down.
Take the text box I used to write this Description. If I don't make the box bigger, and don't scroll, I can't see the text further down. The autolinker does not automatically scroll down when it is asking which item to replace text with. I also cannot scroll while the dialogue box is up, meaning to check the context of the word being replaced, I have to either skip it and come back to after checking. Or cancel, check, then restart the process. (However, this particular one is inconsistent. In the image below, it DID scroll down. However, this was AFTER I selected the article link, rather than before)
Additionally, I find it odd that it asks me which article I want to replace the text with (in the dialogue box) THEN (in the dialogue box) shows me the text to be replaced.  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

Can the autolinker dialogue box, instead of first asking me which article, show me the text to be replaced. AND autoscroll down, so the text can be seen in the context of the sentence it is in. THEN select the article that is meant to be linked in.   (Sorry if the images are in the wrong order, got no preview :P )

The Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! We see the issue and agree that it's something to be fixed, so we're accepting this. However, community support seems to be low so it will be very low priority.
