(Whiteboard: [nsbeta2+]Exception Feature 5 days 6/19) 

Need to find a nice way to allow autoscrolling for xpmenus. The solution for this 
is probably found in the work i'll do for auto-scrolling the tree view during d&
d. will mark this a depenedency of that.

assigning to evaughan for task breakdown and estimate, and to determine 
possible overlap with Bug 11586. Need to offload as much of the implementation 
as possible to someone else.

task breakdown

days item
1    build scrollbox
1    build auto scroll button
2    write xbl to hook them to menu code to autoscroll

I would probably have to at least build the scrollbox myself.

i disagree with this breakdown. one day to build a scrollbox? and make sure it 
works on 3 platforms? 

Putting on [NEED INFO], waiting for decision on tree re-write.

The scrollbox already exists mostly it is merely a gfxscrollframe which we use 
everywhere already. All I would do is expose it as a XUL tag and add some 
attributes to set max, and cur position.

verified fixed (and quite nice too). [I do have a couple of bugs that I will

bookmarks.html on the mac].
