           Summary: Sticky Autoscroll Fix
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: idanan at chromium.org


Middle-clicking on an area which is not a link causes WebKit to start scrolling
and releasing the mouse button WebKit gets stuck in that mode. The main issue
is that when middle-clicking on something which appears to be a link, it takes
time to recover from the problem and loosing the position on the page is easy
because any mouse movement at that point scrolls the page away from the content
the user is interested in.
