This is not about the theme, unfortunately. It seems to me that it was likely a 
bug in Scintilla. I can't zero in on exactly what their fix was. But this all 
seemed to be be related to transition to GTK3. BTW, the nightlies look like 
built to GTK2, otherwise they'd comply with my current GTK3 theme.

Starting with Geany 1.34, at most, this scrolling bug does not manifest itself 
anymore. 1.32 is affected. If you're up for this, you could try building that 
version from source to see if it acts up on your end.  As much as I could 
gather `sci_set_selection_start()  / end()` is what eventually breaks the sync 
between scrollbar state and redraw of the vscroll slider. This scroll 
misbehavior just as well cold be triggered from tool-bar search field.

Geany also had a scroll-related fix [604eac9f0], but it does not look like it 
targets this specific issue.

Too bad, as I was hoping to introduce a few more "regular" users to Geany. I 
won't expect them to build it from sources. Hopefully, 1.36 would find its way 
to repos soon:
