Title:
  Themes using overlay scrollbars have to set explicitly set backgrounds
  on all scrollable widgets

Status in overlay-scrollbar package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The overlay scrollbar module forces the window that should be scrolled
  to be native. Gtk is moving away from native windows and seems to have
  some hard-to-find regressions when using them.

  This causes a bunch of themeing issues (black/transparent backgrounds)
  which can be worked around in the theme by setting backgrounds for
  these widgets explicitely. That's a performance issue (since we're
  filling backgrounds unnecessarily) and annoying, as these have to be
  only some of the time for some widgets (e.g., GtkEventBox).

  Porting overlay-scrollbars to not use native windows might be
  worthwhile if we decide to keep them.
