I think what Matt described in his last post indicates that this is the intended behavior. I erroneously interpreted the behavior as inconsistent because the particular artists I had chosen to do my initial testing on had biographies that filled the edit window.
That said, it is not consistent with how those same fields work in the basic tag window - the amount of text shown does not change how scrolling interacts with the large text edit window. So in that sense, it is not consistent, and for me personally, I don't like it because I now find myself accidentally closing the edit window frequently.
I imagine I will eventually get used to making sure I don't scroll when I'm in a large edit field, but then again, I'm not sure. The "freewheeling" hyperscroll wheel on my mouse makes it very easy to accidentally scroll, which will then accidentally close that window. I will be curious if others also find the auto-closing aspect irritating, or if I will be the only one who cares.
So there you go Matt… All this proves once again that no good deed goes unpunished! In any event, I truly do appreciate your spending the holiday looking at this, making changes, and conversing on this thread.
Matt:
I don't feel that strongly on this. I'm just saying it is working as intended. Another approach would be for big edits to always eat the wheel even if there's nothing to scroll.

I would welcome a tweak that has no scrollbar as long as text under-fills the window height.
As soon as you hit a carriage return that overfills the height, scroll bar appears. I think that is quite common, even expected, in text editing windows.
Matt:
The scrollbar only appears when necessary. But that's the problem.
It doesn't appear for some fields so scrolling goes to the outer container.
We could make mouse wheel always eaten by the window even if it doesn't have a scrollbar. Like I said, I don't feel strongly.
