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.
