This is a Macintosh Human Interface Guideline going way back: If you don't need scrollbars, don't display them.
I always thought the opposite, that the guidline was to always have a scrollbar if you think you ever might need it to prevent exactly this jumping around effect. For example the text box I'm typing in right now in safari has the empty channel for a scrollbar but the blue gel slug will only appear if I type enough text.
edit: I just tried TextEdit, NetNewsWire, Terminal and Tofu, all are the same, with an empty scrollbar always present (though Tofu has it on the horizontal axis.
Safari doesn't support <object>, and doesn't even fall back, anything contained in <object> is not displayed, and some people report their use of <object> causes it to crash!
Plus its slow, it seems like it will only open about 4 concurrent connections for the whole app, so loading multiple tabs takes for ever if the sites have lots of images/etc.

This is a problem that many people have complained about. Why only 4 connections, I wonder.... It's a lame restriction.

I see a white horizontal line at the bottom, below discography in situ.
That's the one.
A proof that there's still work to be done at Safari's frame rendering.
