Firefox achieves this with the Reload Every plugin , but has been crashing 
lately so I tried Chrome, but this isn't helpful if it's going to scroll to the 
top every time, since I'm using it for a network monitoring TV.

Hi.  I'd like to be a committer to this project.  I've hacked a version that 
includes this very feature.  It grabs your scroll position when you click the 
Reload icon and saves it in the same array that holds the reload time.  Then 
when a reload of the page is complete, it snaps back to that position.

It would be nice if this was included. 
Keep up the good work.

A new method reload() was added to chrome.tabs that you can call in the 
doReload function.

Discussion on this here
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=91618

Change the function to this to resolve this issue

    function doReload(tab_id) {
        chrome.browserAction.setIcon({path:"icons/KnobLoopOn.png", tabId:tab_id});
        chrome.browserAction.setBadgeText({text:'', tabId:tab_id});

        // need to work out a way to make POST'ed pages reload
        chrome.tabs.reload(tab_id);

    }
