Tab scrolling not working about textual HOT 5 CLOSED

It's kinda tricky to see the difference between the two videos, but is the v0.51.0 one a little too eager to get to the new tab when using a mouse click? I suspect this is needed then:

diff --git a/src/textual/widgets/_tabs.py b/src/textual/widgets/_tabs.py
index 276f7e58..1948bb9c 100644

can you check and see if that removes what you're seeing?

That doesn't appear to change anything.

Curious. Now that I'm at a keyboard and can try and recreate all of this, with 0.51 (on the left in this video) I'm seeing an immediate jump (which is what I thought I was seeing in your video); if I make the change suggested above (make to Tabs._activate_tab) I see the smoother scrolling I'd expect again:

I'll PR this change anyway so you can try again; perhaps the diff above (which I offered for illustrative purposes; of course it could be that your main differed by the time you tried it out).
