Bug Description
Trying to read down my list of posts in Gwibber is very difficult because of a number of bugs. The one I'm reporting here is using the scrollbar to scroll through the list is in no way smooth and skips in big jumps. The effect is I cannot read while scrolling, and because it jumps so jarringly quickly I don't know if I have missed any posts. We need to implement smooth scrolling.

The current design avoids smooth scrolling by always aligning a tile at the top. It might be a nice configuration option, to enable smooth scrolling however I think to do that would require significant refactoring.
