It is equivalent in Motif and Gtk+ speak, i.e. the callback can't 
distinguish between the two.  Dragging and jumping are handeled the same.

Yes, page increment/decrement, and step increment/decrement are modes.
As is drag and jump.

I haven't tried lately, but Gtk+ 2 flickered a lot when its maximum 
value changed.  For example typing at the bottom of a buffer would 
change the value for every key press.
