[GNC] "Non-sticky" scroll bars in gnucash registers

[David Carlson]

Ok, I was traveling last week and it seems like motels are switching to
bathroom sinks that sit on top of the counter, with plumbing that looks
like the old fashioned hand water pump and bowl arrangement, thus are
automatically 8 " higher and further back, leaving no room for toothbrush
charger, hand towel (no towel hanger either) soap dish etc.

Scrollbars are not actually completely useless but close in this new form.
Sometimes it is hard to make them appear and if you click somewhere above
or below the slider the window slides up proportional to where you clicked
instead of one page.  Thus there is no longer a 'page up' 'page down'
function with the mouse button.  That gets very annoying when reading a
long document.
