That is, the presence or thickness of a column rule will not alter the placement of anything else. If a column rule is wider than its gap, the adjacent column boxes will overlap the rule, and the rule may possibly extend outside the box of the multicol element. http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-multicol/#column-gaps-and-rules I think "does not alter the placement of anything else" implies that scrollbars should not be added.
