Public bug reported:

There should be an option to increase scrollbar-width under:
System Settings > Personal > Appearance

The number of appearance modification options is ridiculously limited in
Ubuntu 12.10 compared to other major operating systems and even compared
to the old Gnome2 desktop.

I'm not big on fancy options, but I find sizing options crucial for
usability.

Future updates and releases of Ubuntu should at least focus on adding
Appearance options that allow you to control the default sizes of
scrollbars, title bars, and "exit,maximize,minimize button-sizes.
