If it does not go against current design focus, I think that the orange
bar could be made thinner (but still easy to see). Also I'm wondering
the thumb could be made to appear via mouse pressure when the window is
maximized, that is, in the same way you make the Launcher visible when
set to auto-hide.

This may be a simplistic solution, I don't know if makes sense. The
orange bar needs to be thinner (or to have a space of its own) because,
at least currently with Gtk+ and stuff, it obscures content (e.g. it is
drawn over the contents of gedit or evince); this is particularly bad
when the content contains small artifacts next to the window borders
(e.g. the related left-to-right languages bug).

The thumb being made visible via pressure I am not sure, but it would
help with maximize window issue, not sure if it would introduce other
more annoying problems.

Title:
  Overlay scrollbars obscure content in a maximised window

Status in Ayatana Design:
  New
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Triaged
Status in Overlay Scrollbar:

Status in “overlay-scrollbar” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When overlay scrollbars pop into existence as the user mouses over
  them, they do not appear over the content the user is trying to view.
  Vertical bars appear to the right and horizontal bars appear below.

  This is not the case with maximised windows, and the scrollbars will
  obscure the content in this situation.
