I know that I can check the container mouseX value and generally tell whether or not the scrollBar was clicked (assuming the contents of the container require a scrollBar), but that isn't fool proof, depending on whether or not there is a scrollBar. The FlashPlayer certainly can tell the difference, since it knows when to scroll and when not to scroll, based on where the user clicks. Seems the container class controls should have a couple more event triggers: verticalScrollClick and horizontalScrollClick
