Comment 4 for bug 1035652

Pretty long time without this getting any attention.

If there is no interest in fixing the long list of bugs and brilliant features of these usability-killer scrollbars, why don't you please remove them from Ubuntu by default?

Most tutorials I've seen around about tweaking the latest releases of Ubuntu to make it work great, include removing the shitty overlay scrollbars among the first 5 or 10 things to do.
