I afraid, the biggest problem would be not to balance the results but to
obtain data itself. To generate some kind of alphabetical list you need
to access ALL rows in DataModel at least once. Such scroller would
completely kill any performance if working with large tables (i.e. with
buffered DataModel in background, which fetchs only the current page of
data from DB)

Hm,
yes, alphabetically grouping is not balanced than the row numbers.
Sorting is another issue also. Sounds more complicated.
I had in mind something like:
[<<] [<] [A-De] [Df-Gr] [Gs-Or] [Os-Z] [>] [>>]
But I think that is a own project then...
But a useful one.

I think it wouldn't be enough :) I think also, it sounds like a
completely new component, since it have to deal directly with
underlaying DataModel with all sort of type safety issues, sorting,
filtering etc. The standard dataScroler handles just rowCount and First
of dataTable and knows nothing about displayed data.
