When using a table view which requires scrollbars, the default opening position is in the middle of the table.
This feels confusing. It would be better to either have the table scrolled to left start by default, or to configure it to follow the left-to-right or right-to-left read order and have it right scrolled for right-to-left environments.
To make it scrolled to the left, the bodyScrollView definition (https://github.com/sproutcore/sproutcore-table/blob/master/views/table.js#L185) should get the horizontalScrollOffset property defined with value 0.
