Thanks for the explanation.

For mouse based scrolling a mouse with scroll wheel is required.
That was the misconception I had (using a three button mouse)
as I did not spot any code that would make the scroll
bar appear so one could emulate scrolling by clicking at various
places within it...anyway, sorry for the confusion.

Retested with scroll wheel mouse. Works as advertised :D
