Hi there!

With the last release of Elementary theme, authors include a modd for
Scrollbars.. No Steppers.

The argument: Users normally don't use them, just use mouse scroll or
handle scrollbars. well I think that's true, at least in most cases.
But, in NON GTK apps, like LibreOffice, have some problems with that
modd. The only solution for elementary it's include steppers.

If we think in the actual light themes ( and I don't know if there are
any plans about this) have steppers, they are separate and if we want to
use theme we have to make a considerable movement for up and down.

So, why don't put them together? I've made a mockup only for vertically
scrollbars (sorry), but the Idea it's have theme for horizontal
scrollbars to. This will make that the 4 steppers will be in the same
area and if we want to use them are more easy, fast an simple..
Specially for laptops.

My English it's not good, sorry :P so look at this mockup:



Regards!
