Page wont scroll by dragging on right side of touchpad - works in almost all
programs I have, including IE and Avant Browser.  This is a very useful feature
for laptop users with no mouse wheel.  Synaptics is the most common touchpad by
far.  Thanks for considering this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open any page
2. drag finger down right side of touchpad (with virtual scrolling enabled)
3. 

Actual Results:  
nothing - that's the point

Expected Results:  
scroll the page down in sync with the finger dragging

"On Windows, old drivers of Synaptics touchpad may not have scrolling enabled
for Mozilla. You can get a new driver at
