I think this is equally noticeable in the GTK version of gwibber (3.1.6). It is quite hard to visually follow the stream while scrolling with these discrete jumps. I think the human eye needs a hit as to how far/how fast an item moved. Smooth scrolling allows to scroll much faster, as one can follow the stream with the eyes and gets a feeling for distance and speed.

It is very disturbing for the user when the renderers (which have variable row height) have an important height (it is not 12px, but rather 150).
