Thankx Alex...appreciate the time and ascii you're providing. Such quick
work for step 1 demands a followup...

What i'm _really trying to do is implement a clickless scroller behavior.

In an effort to avoid one of the worst keyboarding gestures (from an RSI
point of view) for users is clicking a small thumb and holding or (worse)
dragging.

I'd like to explore using a call 'hover' event. What would it take to define
a scrolling behavior where the scroll bar implements an additional behavior,
a response to a hover state (or event) that's fired when a cursor is
stationary > .5 sec (in other words, we move to a scroll bar, hover and
scrolling starts on the hover, not the click)

So scrolling begins slowly but accelerates at a rate determined by:

   1. Time elapsed since non-movement over hoverHandler
   2. Delta to midpoint of midline. Further off center, faster the scroll
   3. Mouse movement with 2 branches:
      1. if movement confined to hoverHandler
      1. accell @ move away from midline, or
         2. decel @ move toward midline
         3. Mouse moves to Accordion header =
         1. stop scroll
            2. wait for hover
            3. @ hover over accordion header = expand accordion
            panel.
            2. if mouse moves outside hoverHandler && ouside
      accordion header = scroll returns to last pagetop.

Have you seen that sort of effect/behavior explored? Make a great practicum
for a MVC sample, wouldn't it?

again...much appreciated.
