I don't understand your reasoning here. Yes, TWinControls shouldn't need
to control the scrollbars (because that's done by the widgetset), and
that is the reason why TScrollingWinControl descends from TWinControl,
to separate that functionality to another class.

Most TCustomControls you mean ?

TCustomControl exposes its canvas while TCustomForm doesn't, IIRC ?
