A persistent viewports architecture that provides a persistent and correctly-positioned viewport to a user when a collaboration document is being updated. The architecture identifies and utilizes a user's element-of-interest in content of the document to determine and recalculate the correct position of the user viewport. The architecture tracks a topmost element of the content (or section of content) from the viewport and employs the topmost element as a reference element. The topmost element can be one or more of a paragraph, a header, string of text, and an image. When the underlying document is to be updated, the viewport performs a lookup of reference element, and after finding the reference element, adjusts the X and Y offsets of the viewport so that the element-of-interest is inside the viewport.

1. A method, comprising acts of: identifying an element-of-interest in content of a virtual document, the element-of-interest in a viewport of the virtual document presented on a passive user system;receiving an update to the content of the virtual document from an active user system;determining that the update will change the position of the element-of-interest in the viewport on the passive user system and cause the position of the viewport to be adjusted in order for the element-of-interest to be persisted within the viewport;causing, based on determining that the update will change the position of the element-of-interest in the viewport on the passive user system and cause the position of the viewport to be adjusted in order for the element-of-interest to be persisted within the viewport, an update notification to be displayed by the passive user system, the update notification providing an option to delay incorporation of the update into the virtual document presented on the passive user system;receiving a selection in response to the update notification; andcausing, in response to receiving the selection, the passive user system to delay input of the update and queue the update for entry into the virtual document presented on the passive user system. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising computing position of the viewport relative to the element-of-interest. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising identifying a reference element in the content of the viewport of the passive user system in response to the update. 4. The method of claim 3, further comprising identifying a topmost element in the viewport of the passive user system as the reference element. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising identifying a reference element in response to the update and adjusting an offset in the content to persist the element-of-interest in the viewport. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising searching for the element-of-interest in a memory that stores a hashset and elements of the content. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising synchronizing the update across applications of passive user systems while maintaining position of the element-of-interest in corresponding viewports of the passive user systems. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising shifting position of the viewport to include the element-of-interest in the viewport. 9. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving the update in a part of the virtual document that is outside the viewport of the passive user system. 10. A method, comprising acts of: identifying an element-of-interest in content of a virtual document, the element-of-interest in a viewport of the virtual document presented on a passive user system of a collaboration session;computing position of the viewport relative to the element-of-interest;identifying a reference element in the content of the viewport of the passive user system;receiving an update to the content of the virtual document from an active user system of the collaboration session;determining that the update will change the position of the element-of-interest in the viewport on the passive user system and cause the position of the viewport to be adjusted in order for the element-of-interest to be persisted within the viewport;causing, based on determining that the update will change the position of the element-of-interest in the viewport on the passive user system and cause the position of the viewport to be adjusted in order for the element-of-interest to be persisted within the viewport, an update notification to be displayed by the passive user system, the update notification providing an option to delay incorporation of the update into the virtual document presented on the passive user system;receiving a selection in response to the update notification; andcausing, in response to receiving the selection, the passive user system to delay input of the update and queue the update for entry into the virtual document presented on the passive user system. 11. The method of claim 10, further comprising identifying a topmost element in the viewport of the passive user system as the reference element. 12. The method of claim 10, further comprising adjusting the viewport according to an offset to persist the element-of-interest in the viewport. 13. The method of claim 10, further comprising synchronizing the update across applications of passive user systems as part of the collaboration session while maintaining position of the element-of-interest in corresponding collaboration viewports of the passive user systems. 14. A system, comprising: at least one processor;memory, operatively connected to the at least one processor and containing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform a method, the method comprising: identifying an element-of-interest in content of a virtual document, the element-of-interest in a viewport of the virtual document presented on a passive user system;receiving an update to the content of the virtual document from an active user system;determining that the update will change the position of the element-of-interest in the viewport on the passive user system and cause the position of the viewport to be adjusted in order for the element-of-interest to be persisted within the viewport;causing, based on determining that the update will change the position of the element-of-interest in the viewport on the passive user system and cause the position of the viewport to be adjusted in order for the element-of-interest to be persisted within the viewport, an update notification to be displayed by the passive user system, the update notification providing an option to delay incorporation of the update into the virtual document presented on the passive user system;receiving a selection in response to the update notification; andcausing, in response to receiving the selection, the viewport of the passive user system to the passive user system to delay input of the update and queue the update for entry into the virtual document presented on the passive user system. 15. The system of claim 14, wherein the method further comprises computing position of the viewport relative to the element-of-interest. 16. The system of claim 14, wherein the method further comprises identifying a reference element in the content of the viewport of the passive user system in response to the update. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the method further comprises identifying a topmost element in the viewport of the passive user system as the reference element. 18. The system of claim 16, wherein the method further comprises identifying the reference element in response to the update and adjusting an offset in the content to persist the element-of-interest in the viewport. 19. The system of claim 14, wherein the method further comprises searching for the element-of-interest in a memory that stores a hashset and elements of the content. 20. The system of claim 14, wherein the method further comprises synchronizing the update across applications of passive user systems while maintaining position of the element-of-interest in corresponding viewports of the passive user systems.
