Some ref-tests are designed so that only the part in the viewport maters.
If I remember correctly, it is for testing things like fixed elements that
are attached in the viewport.

It would also make testing slower but I think we have some freedom to
compensate for that.

Maybe we could just fix the tests that would break by rendering everything.
