Random DW Tech Observation

When I am in the middle of reading my Reading page on Dreamwidth, and it's been a day or so, and I refresh the page with the browser's reload button, it keeps me at exactly the same entry (indeed, the same relative page position), and just adds the newer stuff on top. That is very cool, precisely what I want -- and I have no idea offhand how they do it. Any guesses? Far as I can tell, this is newish: I don't remember this working this well beyond a month or two ago.
(Yes, I could go ask on the official channels, and might do so when it isn't one in the morning, but I toss it out as a random thought experiment for my nerdy friends. The question is mostly idle curiosity, but not entirely: it's a lovely bit of UX, and I might want to steal it in the future...)
