From the current spec:
"onscroll - Must be invoked whenever a scroll event is targeted at or
bubbles through the element."
Yet IE and Firefox don't, and WebKit is currently considering matching
them for compatibility... it seems that folks agree scroll events
shouldn't bubble.
Can we update the spec to match this?
onscroll is just an event listener just like the other on* attributes are.
They do not define how events are dispatched and whether these are
bubbling, cancable, et cetera.
(I haven't tested this but it might very well be that if you dispatch a
custom bubbling event named scroll the onscroll attribute of an ancestor
element, of the element on which you dispatch it, might very well trigger.)
