It looks like GTK sends GTK_SCROLL_JUMP everytime the position of the
scrollbar thumb is changed, regardless of how you change it. I think
it can *also* send events when you click the stepper, but I suspect
you then get two events, with no easy way to distinguish them. Iʼd
test, but my theme doesnʼt have steppers.
