I can tell you that I have used everything of More other the UI stuff
that didn't exist in the original MooTools before the separation.

We have a huge library with plenty of functionality, just because you
don't use something doesn't mean no one does.

Locale, Date.Extras, URI + URI.Relative and Element.Forms are among
the most useful plugins that *I* use in every project, just as an
example. Locale is pretty damn awesome. Validator is going to get an
overhaul "soon" (and then I will definitely use it too).

You were the one who initially suggested adding a scrollbar-plugin to
More, yet you dislike lots of plugins you have never used. Scrollbar
stuff is quite trivial. Just because I use my own scrollbar
implementation in some projects doesn't mean I think it is a good idea
to put it into More.

@Aaron what do you think about putting your Scroller into a repo on
GitHub and see how it does? I'd love that as a first step, rather than
just adding More stuff (oh snap!).
