Best thing might be to have an opt-in policy where Ambiance and Radiance will explicitly say they want to use the overlay scrollbars. Option 2: Add an option in System Settings>Universal Access>Seeing to disable them. Solution for 12.04: Set overlay-scrollbar visibility based on theme selection in: System Settings > Appearance > Look If a high contrast theme is chosen, the overlay-scrollbar visibility will be set to 0, otherwise it will be set to 1.
