different browser vendors may have a different opinion, but I don't think your suggestion of complete freedom of styling the scroll-bar would get everyone's favor. Browser vendors need not only to give power to authors, but also to make sure things make sense for users. Allowing authors to tweak native controls like scrollbars is considered risky, as the resulting UI may end up making no sense. Not that authors make page that make no sense on purpose, but it isn't rare that they fail to take into account some variations between browsers or platforms, and end up making something that doesn't quite work everywhere. `overflow-style` would give a more limited set of options. This is certainly more limiting for authors, but it also more likely to always work. I think it is a decent compromise. -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/107#issuecomment-221821698 using your GitHub account
