Scrollbars - difficult to resize window with 12.04 overlay scrollbar

Bug description:
With the new overlay scrollbar in 12.04 the handle appears anywhere on
the scrollbar you move the mouse to, but this makes it very difficult
to resize the window on the right side. It is especially difficult on
a laptop. The only way I have figured it can be done is to leave the
mouse on the edge until the handle disappears but this is not very
convenient. I think the usability of the new scrollbars needs
improvement
Note: A good application to use when reproducing this behaviour is
Evolution calendar.
-----------------------------------------
Desired resolution:
- Clicking and dragging the overlay scrollbar at right angles to the
scroll direction should resize subpanels (in exactly the same way as
this currently works with whole windows)
- When the pointer is positioned over either of the long sides (left
or right sides for a vertical scrollbar) of the thumb, the pointer
icon should change from the normal single arrow to a 'two way resizing
arrow' to signal to the user that they can resize by dragging. This
'two way resizing arrow' should also appear when the pointer 2px away
from the thumb on either side.
