That's what Emacs does too, and it gives good, usable results while
working naturally with Emacs rendering. The problem, of course is that
(as you note) it _also_ results in scrollbar size varying depending on
your location, and GTK's scrollbar does not allow this, although it
could easily do so, apparently because they believe all apps should
rigidly use "vertical height" metrics for scrollbars, no exceptions
permitted.
