Comment 2 for bug 683856

It's really quite simple:

Open maximized Firefox to a page with a height long enough to warrant a
scroll-bar, looking at the very top of the page. Move your mouse to the very
rightmost edge of the screen, to an area below the scroller. Clicking should
scroll the page to that position, currently it does not. The user has to
make a minute movement to the left, apparently one or two pixels, for the
click to generate any response. This means I have to look to the edge of the
screen to scroll, I can't just move the mouse, click and keep reading the
page.

This is a really annoying aspect of Ubuntu that I noticed does not happen in
OSX. Any way to kick this to the desktop experience team?
