Details

In the current implementation (bug 672006), we make sure that the selected node is visible in the scrollbox. It may be better for the user the be able to see the immediate neighbors as well (buttons before and after the selected one).

A naive way to do this would be to use ensureElementIsVisible on the next neighbor, and then on the previous one. But it would involve a setTimeout().

The best way is probably to hack the current implementation of arrowscrollbox to add a ensureElementsAreVisible method.
