This is a variant on the overflow:hidden; problem that's been true in  
this browser since the beginning. (Summary: in any overflow:hidden;  
block, you can click-and-drag to highlight text, and this allows you  
to scroll to the hidden parts.) I haven't heard of a solution for  
that, outside of constant DOM polling/resetting the scrollTop value,  
which is unsatisfactory on so many levels.

One person trying to hide content with overflow:hidden; eventually  
added an empty div that completely covered the one with the click-and- 
drag scroll issue, effectively intercepting the drag-highlight  
events. This solution worked for his purposes, but would prove worse  
than the problem in ordinary situations since it completely prevented  
selecting any text for any reason.
