  Hi Colomar,

  You get a large scrollbar, visible only on mouse-over

  you get a small scrollbar that is always visible

  If we make it so, I am sure there will be some (how many ?) users who will ask for the two combinations that I describe above,  and which are not covered by your choices 1 or 2.
  And IMHO their requests would be as valid as the one covered by 1. or 2.
  
  Which is why I think "no" option would actually be better.
  In other word, either you have 2 checkboxes that cover all four possible combinations, or you start to make arbitrary (design based)  choices to reduce this number of combinations. Now if you go along that path, you might as well leave only one combination. (the one that is the most consistent with the design you want for breeze, and that does not reduce functionalities with respect to the old design).
