The page has lots of content and requires scrolling to see it all, however no
(vertical) scroll bars are shown. Up and down arrows work as does the
scrollwheel on my mouse.

that page is horrible html, javascript.
overflow:hidden causes Firefox to remove the scrollbar, as it should.

I disagree that this invalid. I have seen another page with overflow:hidden set
on the body tag (http://happyshopperllc.250free.com/Radar_Detectors.html - which
is just someone trying to spam Google), and again there is no scroll bar but the
mouse wheel does allow you to scroll.
The W3C spec ( http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/visufx.html#propdef-overflow ) states
"hidden
This value indicates that the content is clipped and that no scrolling
mechanism should be provided to view the content outside the clipping region;
users will not have access to clipped content. The size and shape of the
clipping region is specified by the 'clip' property."
In this case it helped me find someone spamming, but technically it is a bug.
