Bug Description

Binary package hint: pidgin

If i double click on a buddy it opens in a new tab in the current chat window. If i now detach this tab (right click on the tab header -> detach this tab) it goes to a new window. In this window the overlay scrollbars won't work. There is the orange bar at the edge and it moves if i scroll with the mouse wheel but when i hover the orange bar, there is not this object popping up with the two arrows on it.

Video which describes the behavior. "Diesen Tab ablösen" is the german translation of "Detach this tab" ;)
