"X new posts!" element appearing moves everything else, causing misclicks

It's a small complaint, for sure, but this bugged me with Twitter
too. Because the "new posts" indicator is a separate element, when it
appears it bumps other elements in the feed down. This always seems to
happen when I'm about to click a link, or the Like button, or just
whatever, and I end up doing an action that I didn't want to.
One suggestion to fix this would be to make an indicator appear in
the top bar that already floats, or maybe just give us the option to
turn that feature off.
