Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-scrollbars-2] Introduce scrollbar-mode for autohide behavior in User Agents (#7421)

> Generally we (Apple) consider that the scrollbar behavior should be under user control, not web author control, and that web content should respect the scrollbar behaviors that the user specifies through system settings.

I really appreciate the intent, but it's not the global reality.

Maybe, Apple forces that behavior.
But it's not the de facto standard.

The reality is, that a web designer can set preferences and the browser can override it and when the browser doesn't do the right thing (e.g. for disabled users), the user has the final word by using some extension to set the property with `!important`.

The whole mechanism doesn't work, if there is no property to override.

Apple should use the standard way and allow the user to force properties by setting them with `!important`, if that's what they want.
