Ermahgerd, BRING THEM BACK, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD AND PURE!
I'm so sick of aiming for thin little strips of depressing grayness.
Sometimes I'm not on a scroll wheel or a trackpad. Sometimes I'm on a trackpoint, which is very imprecise for scrolling.
Not a potshot against you, but this is what drives me nuts with devs recently: they only think about their own use case most of the time. So if they're in front of a macbook-like device with a yuuuge trackpad, they think that scrollbars are superfluous and tend to make them as minimal and out of the way as possible.
Yeah. Also just for precise scrolling in general. There are times you want to position something juuuuuust right. 😄
