I am not necessarily recommending anything. I gave a rough implementation, so people could try it out. Note that it might only be a customizable option, with the old (native scrollbar) behavior remaining the default. Note also that (1) is just a pie in the sky unless somebody volunteers to implement it (without creating other trouble). Sincerely, Luc.
