This is a small suggestion to improve the appearance of the scrollbar in the Adwaita theme (GTK +2 and GTK +3).

The applications display has changed, taking a more bright and dark grays leaving aside, however, have remained scrollbars.

It would be good idea you had a more consistent appearance. An example within the same system, can be found in GNOME-Contacts. There the scrollbar to navigate between the contacts is more integrated into the system (it looks good).

thanks

The reasons for the sidebar scrollbar to have a unique style is to have it stand out a little less. If we applied the same for the main scrollable area that distinction would be diminished. 

While the suggested style is very much inline with what the feel of Adwaita is, I think the existing established style serves our purpose well. 

Thank you for the suggestion.
