What's wrong when "scrollbar is handled in the same way as current CSS 
box"?
* By default, you get your default UserAgent scrollbar (standard Windows MS 
IE scrollbar, or Netscape's one, etc.)
* If you want to theme scrollbar, you apply some CSS definitions to it.
* If you don't like some scrollbars on somebody else's page - you can 
overwrite them with ! important definition in your custom (or default) 
stylesheet.

After all, you can have "custom stylesheet per host/domain name",  like 
Konqueror, for example, manages JavaScript and Java.
 But I think one custom stylesheet can serve your needs.
