Hi Sergey,
Thanks for the response and for taking the time to look at the problem
with me; very much appreciated.
Respectfully, that doesn't sound correct though; XULrunner is a high
level ui toolkit that binds to gtk2 (and also bind to cocoa and win32
for other platforms).
Firefox and Thunderbird are still very much using gtk2 for their
applications, they just aren't using c/c++ bindings but instead using
crossplatform XULrunner (which can render using other toolkits making it
cross platform) which in turn calls gtk2 to write the widgets to screen,
as opposed to being a completely unique toolkit like motif or qt or
using gtk2 directly.
Here's the ticket tracking work Mozilla is doing moving from gtk2 to
gtk3 for some time in the future, showing they are most definitely using
gtk2 when rendering xul configurations fed into xulrunner on *nix
platforms: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627699
The only two themes that are problematic, Ambiance and Radiance, are
each using the same Murrine gtk2 engine that Ubuntu ships. I recently
discovered Clearlooks and all other gtk2 themes I load do not have the
same issue as Thunderbird renders seemingly every other gtk2 correctly
for the scrollbars.

Hello John,
FYI, Thunderbird uses XUL with a theming compatibility layer, not
GTK2. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XUL for details.
This is a wrong list to contact indeed. I'd rather contact Ubuntu
Mozilla team, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam
