Emacs fails to respect the system  "Click in the scroll bar to: Jump to the spot that's clicked" in the Appearance system preference.
Clicks into the scroll bar always result in page-wise scrolling.

Like every other Mac app., Aquamacs should respect the system preference, "Click in the scroll bar to: Jump to the spot that's clicked" in the Appearance system preference. Aquamacs currently just jumps to the next (or previous) page when the scroll bar is clicked below (above) the thumb. Jumping directly to the spot was present in the original NeXTSTEP, as I recall, and it thankfully migrated to Mac OS X. Once you get used to it, you'll never go back!
