[Bug 1683997] Re: Firefox scrollbars are too narrow and difficult to use in Zesty

** Description changed:

  Firefox 52.0.1 in Ubuntu 17.04 has very narrow scrollbars that are
  difficult to click on using a mouse - they are about one-third of the
  width of the 'old-style' scrollbars used throughout most of Ubuntu until
  a few weeks ago. (ubuntu-gnome has the same problem, fwiw.)
  
- I notice that some applications, like gnome-terminal, still use the old-
- style scrollbars. Others, like Nautilus and Rhythmbox, have a half-width
- scrollbar like Firefox, but the scrollbar doubles in width when the
- mouse moves near to them, making them almost as usable as the old-style
- scrollbars.
+ The expected behaviour is that the scrollbars should widen when you
+ hover over them, the same as with other gnome 3.20+ apps.
