- Step size for scrolling by the cursor keys is so short.
- A built-in smooth scrolling is somewhat less sensitive and laggy.
- When you flick a wheel so quick, it should scrolls farther but just count ticks of a wheel.

Of cource the "Access your data for all websites" permission request is for overriding scroll behavior. For instance it needs website's geometric data to know which is scrollable.
