Bug Description

Version: 0.5.11 on debian jessie x64
GTK+ 2.24.27 (2.24.25) Glib 2.44.2 (2.42.1)
WebKitGTK+ 2.4.9 (2.4.9) libSoup 2.49.92

gcr 3.14.0 granite No
Platform X11; Linux x86_64

I had to spend a long time working out why a touchscreen webapp appliance using Midori kept "randomly crashing". Turns out what's happening is that the users are clicking on the scrollbar step buttons rapidly (why doesn't there seem to be a way to adjust the step size??) and if they do it at just the right double-click speed, it opens a new fullscreen tab over their current one, giving them a nice blank white screen.

Seems like the scrollbar is treated like an extension of the tab bar area.
