The scrollbars are a bit like the old OPEN LOOK scrollbars from SUN from 1988.

The scrollbar had the up and down buttons near the scroll thumb. Clicking on them also moved the mouse cursor with the button. This requires an X11 server where the mouse cursor can be moved programmatically ('warped').

Yes, now you mention it, the Suns at my University worked that way.
