Scroll bars

One of my favorite features of KDE 3.x and Gnome 2.x is the way that you can middle-click (tap the mousewheel) on a scroll bar and the "thumb" (slider) immediately jumps to where you clicked. It's a convenient way to jump to the middle of a long document or web page, and I really miss it when I have to use Windows. And some other Windows users I've mentioned it to agree that it would be a convenient feature to have. So imagine my surpise when I'm trying the OpenSUSE KDE4 b4 live CD, browsing in Konqueror and then again in another program (the desktop applet chooser), and I middle-click the scroll bar and nothing happens.

Other than that and a crash in Konqueror (I believe I was at http://www.truckpaper.com/listings/forsa…tid=1&bcatid=27 but may have just clicked on the first listing there) - and of course the lack of a number of apps at this point, I haven't seen any major issues. Oh yeah, I can't set my time zone, I can set either clock for it separately but they don't communicate.

It is coming along quite well, but needs work yet ...
