Ken,
When you talk about List, do you mean the Qooxdoo *List* component ? The
problem I faced yesterday is very similar to yours but it seems to be linked
to the scrollbar management in *Tables* and occurs on every browser I've
tested.
The patch at the end of the bug thread (
http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2262) that seems to be related,
works for me (although the vertical scrollbar is now always visible).
It can be easily implemented as a mixin until the pb gets fixed in the
codebase.

HTH,
Vincent
