Bug description:
  In gtk+, left-clicking on any point inside the bar of a slider widget
  moves the thumb one step towards that point. The thumb can be moved to
  a specific point directly by middle-clicking that point on the bar.

  In Ubuntu, some slider widgets have been altered to always jump to the
  clicked point directly, regardless of the mouse button that was
  pressed.

  This is inconsistent and confusing, especially when sliders in the
  same app behave differently. For example, the mouse, keyboard,
  brightness, and accessibility settings in System Settings use the gtk+
  style slider, while the sound and appearance settings use the other
  style.

  Furthermore, this kind of change should not be made inside
  applications, but in gtk+ itself (even if the two kinds of behaviors
  are desired).

  Assigning to Christian Giordano, as he's the bug contact on bug
  #898611, which made me aware of this issue.
