The front-page collection box auto-scrolls through the different suggestions as expected. When I click on one of the topics, however, it keeps scrolling away from my choice with the same delay as if I had never clicked anything. Since it is obvious that the user is interested in a specific section when they click it, auto-scrolling should either switch off then, or only restart with a significant delay (or possibly on blur?).
Good point, so I think the appropriate interaction is if the user takes any action (other than mouseover) on the collection promo module, it should not restart the auto-scroll.
Ryan: Did you disable auto-scroll altogether now?

r27125 For QA: New functionality is rotation is every 8 seconds. If the user mouseovers the module, rotation stops. When the user mouseouts, the rotation starts again after 8 seconds. If the user clicks on either navigation arrow or the bottom links, rotation stops permanently.
