sectionscroller is a scrollbar that in case of a listview with sections, puts a tooltip near the scrollbar handle with the section name when the user drags it around quickly.
It was part of the old meego components api (from which all controls descend) I think is nice, not 100% needed so if this solves other problems, is ok
