I actually do not support breaking anything, but really cannot *efficiently* read my mail since there is no autoscroll yet. I would *prefer* google to have a hovering delete button for gmail, since that is the only website that I sometimes find myself having to grab the scrollbar to get back to the top or to the bottom of a page (to delete an email).. Scrolling the mouse button is just painful on a 10 conversation thread sometimes! Unfortunately I do not use extensions (except for flashblock), so I just prefer to have the checkbox under options like in FF - I guess everyone can dream though :) Thanks > In other news, there's a fella named Pauan who noted in the comments > of my extension that he's made an autoscroll extension for Linux. > I've only seen one user in the Chrome community with that name.
