I never noticed the behavior of horizontal scrollbars in GTK because
I've never encountered any. Just checked out the behavior of
Rhthymbox's seek indicator, it's just as you described (i.e., dain

Hi,
it's backwards in a numerical sense, in that the numbers increase with
one slider type, but decrease with another, using the same command.
However, UI designers don't think in numbers, but associations.
Left is generally associated with up, right with down, as we read left to
