This bug only appears on the 1.7 and aviary branches; trunk is OK.

An element with a hover state loses the hover state when the page is scrolled
with the mouse wheel.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put mouse in a (vertically tall) element with a hover state.
2. Scroll mouse wheel, keeping the pointer within the element.


Actual Results:  
Hover state disappers.

Expected Results:  
Hover state remains.

This could be a regression, but I'd have to do some serious drilling back.

Looks like this is actually a bug that was fixed between 1.8a1 and 1.8a2, I just
can't find the dupe. Would be a nice port for aviary, if I ever find the
original bug....
