Since the latest update 1.0.7.16, we finally have a scrollbar for larger lists. This scrollbar is too big/wide in my opinion though. As it only skips all the way to the top/bottom of a list, would you consider making these buttons small circles instead? Something like Tweetian currently has. It functions exactly the same, except it's a lot smaller than the current scrollbar which takes up 1/5th of the screen.

Circled buttons... what a nice idea :-)

See also https://together.jolla.com/question/45609/scrollbar-enhancement/. The scrollbar could be put to better use; to not only navigate to top/bottom but quickly scroll to anywhere in list.

The whole point of the Sailfish UI design is that you don't need to hit small buttons. You either swipe or have large UI elements that easily allow you to interact with the phone. Even more important, the scroll elements don't hide anything and disappear again very quickly. So what's the point in changing them?

It's not all that small, and I think it would fit perfectly with the minimalistic style of Sailfish.
