FAQ read not working because of FAQ contents

A very minor and rare bug, primarily sharing it here for other people that run into it.

We had a forum where the FAQ was not being marked as read for users. After a very, very, very long debug session it turned out to be because this specific FAQ ended with a link to another post on the forum.

That post got embedded, causing a <aside class="quote".... > to be present in the /faq page, being the very last child within div.cooked, so this never triggered.

isElementInViewport(document.querySelector(".contents p:last-child"))

The issue was solved by editing the FAQ and adding a . on an empty line at the bottom.

I think this issue should be resolved by @cvx’s recent refactor - we use > *:last-child to detect the ‘end of the page’
