[Bug 1066454] [NEW] Unity dashboard's scrollbar is sometimes unusable

[cg]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I can't seem to use the particularly small white scrollbar (see
attachment) on the right side of the dashboard in a consistent manner.
When I try to click on it and move the mouse while keeping its button
pressed, seems to sometimes work and sometimes not. I wasn't able to
determine under which circumstances it doesn't, but it's really
frustrating. The scrolling is ok when using the keyboard's up/down arrow
keys and the mouse wheel. But the first problematic method I mentioned
becomes more important in laptops with no mouse wheel or in case a user
is not used in using gestures on their laptop's pad.

Thank you.
