OK this is a good point.  I guess the point that I am missing here is why
someone would do this.  I never found this problem because when I am
scrolling I watch the data as it scrolls and stop when I see what I want.
If I scroll so fast that the Pilot does not keep up with me than how do I
know the correct point to lift the pen.  I guess if the scroll list is
really huge you may want to do this to get to the bottom 25% of the text and
then move the pen slowly at that point.  But in either case you have to wait
for the pilot to catch up before you start moving slowly the only difference
is whether you leave the pen down or pick it up and then put it back down.

I tried playing with it a little and I can see how this could be little
annoying.

I have not looked at the code again but I am guessing that the check to see
if the pen up happens in the scrollbar is only using the car as the valid
boundary not the entire shaft.

Can't say I'd consider it a "feature".  It happens when the pen up happens
before the scroller has caught up.  The workaround is to keep holding the
pen
down til the scroller catches up; a deliberate action which certainly breaks
one's rhythm when navigating quickly.
