There's probably a better starting value than this, especially for larger screens.

This is solving a different tracked issue, right? I think it should be out of scope of this PR as it will need more discussion, in particular I always thought that we would need to integrate a DomScrollableElement.

This hoverWidget contains a base hoverWidget which has such an element. It's just that this hoverWidget clears out the maxHeight at https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/main/src/vs/workbench/services/hover/browser/hoverWidget.ts#L231
And here's where this hoverWidget imports the other one that has the scrollbar https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/main/src/vs/workbench/services/hover/browser/hoverWidget.ts#L14

That pixel high might cause problems in some scenarios though, and it would need to be tested to make sure the hover correctly flips when real estate isn't there

Instead of this, I think we should still be hiding the hover but only when the document.activeElement lies outside the hover. Otherwise this happens which doesn't see right:

Actually, being able to tab into the hover seems pretty good, because I'm not sure how else a user would think to use the keyboard to navigate into the hover
I also think that a tab loop might help, though that is a more complicated design. I can split the maxHeight changes into a separate PR.
