Yeah this is a problem we should try to fix. I think we could have a variable 
telling if we are changing the viewport because of a drag and if that's 
happening do not do the ensureVisible in notifyViewportChanged, the problem 
with that is that then the view does not scroll when reaching the top/bottom 
"limits" and that's not what the user wants probably. My suggestion here would 
be scrolling the thumbnail view so that the green rectangles always are 
visible.

I don't see this problem can you attach a screenshot?

Another problem is that you changed the behaviour on how the thumbnail list 
works, the old implementation let's you click anywhere inside the "green area" 
and drag and only moves the viewport the number of pixels you have dragged. 
Your implementation moves the viewport to exactly where you clicked, i think 
this is not what we want.
