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.
