It took me a while, searching through all of the mail copies I kept, to see if this wasn't perhaps a bug I had filed. There is nothing in Stefan's reply mail to indicate who reported the bug or when it was reported - just an oblique reference to "your problem". Not to mention that it is not enough to sort by Subject, since "Scrolling..." collates differently from "bug#21: Scrolling...". Anyway, the bug logging is a plus, even if it is still quite primitive.
