Details

In previous versions, a left click on the scroll bar has moved the slider 1 screen into the direction of the mouse pointer.
This is the default behavior off all applications (at least on Linux and Windows) and allows fast screen-by-screen moving through a page.
It has been working like this since ages and is good practice.

With the latest version, a left click on the scroll bar places the slider immediately at mouse pointer position, which is really annoying and inconsistent with other applications.
