If you link to a named cell, eg. [https://beta.observablehq.com/@tmcw/cocktail-similarity#route](https://beta.observablehq.com/@tmcw/cocktail-similarity#route), the browser doesn’t reliably scroll to that cell.

This seems to do with the fact that content is actively loading; in this case the route cell ends up almost 3/4ths of the way down the page by the time all cells have computed their results.

Also, @tom, cool notebook! I found this bug because I wanted to send a link to a friend with a cocktail hobby. 😃
