Thanks Myles.

Yosef, this means that the new behavior is intentional -- the scrollbars will now change position depending on the web site's text direction.

OK. I think we will want the default to be the opposite for GTK, to optimize for native apps; then we can change the setting in just Epiphany rather than in every app using WebKitGTK+.
