I don't understand this, why would the browser widget be interested in
events that happen on the scrollbar widget? That's what happens
anyway, I start a drag over the scrollbar outside the thumb and the
page is panned as if I dragged on the page.

Unless of course (and I guess this is the case) it's not really two
widgets but one widget doing funny things. I don't see this with any
other application, the scrollbar will "jump" to the direction of the
stylus as expected if I start a drag outside the thumb.

So I suppose this particular bug can and should be fixed in the
browser UI / browser engine...
