Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-scrollbars] `scrollbar-width` should support custom measurements (#6263)

I know that you are not an implementer.
I only wanted to make clear, that it's not that simple.

I'm not sure if it is a 100% user preference.
Nearly the same reasons (without the interaction part) would be valid for fonts. But they have a size.
Buttons are even interactive and can be sized at will, they can even be designed totally unusable. Nobody says, buttons should not be sized.

For me it's also an orthogonality thing.
If you tweak all web sites with overriding css, you will find, that the scrollbars do not follow, because they cannot be sized. And if they can be sized it's not the same place, not doable in an injected script.

I mostly have normal scrollbars, but there are also scrollbars that only indicate a position, without the need to handle them. Those I want to be much smaller (depending only on vision capabilities, not motion capabilities), this is the "thin" case.
There is also a type in between. Those are not handled regularly, but only in special cases. I would size them between thin and normal.

Well, I guess nobody that can change something is reading this closed issue.
