QTabBar autoscrolls unnecessarily

SUMMARY
If one opens a lot of tabs then the extra tabs get hidden and have to be scrolled to somehow. That works when you use the scroll wheel, but when you click on a tab the bar auto-scrolls to hide the overflown tabs.

For example these are the tabs open, tabs hidden due to overflow are in parenthesis:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 (8) (9)
^

When one scrolls to see the last tab, like this:

(1) (2) 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
^

Then clicking tab 8 will result in this:

(1) 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 (9)
^

Instead of proper (this happens when you use the mouse wheel to scroll):

(1) (2) 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
^

OBSERVED RESULT
The tab bar auto-scrolls and hides items that are after the clicked tab.

EXPECTED RESULT
The tab bar doesn't auto-scroll, that it behaves the same using a mouse click than it does when using a scroll wheel.
