My pet peeve with the list manager is the thing scrolls to fast for simple
lists on a fast machine. To fix this, I change the contrlProc field of my
scroll bar to a handle to a jump instruction to a routine that delays if
necessary, then dispatches off to the real control definition procedure. I
wisk Apple would sanction a scrollbar CDEV that would provide this control
in every program.  I could write such a thing, but it would just be
another hack without Apple's endorsement.
