How much my page scrolls when pressing PageDown/PageUp varies, based on the
content and what program I'm using to work with it. Basically when i press
PageDown it should scroll exactly one page down, right? But it doesn't. Even in
the middle of a very long document, it usually scrolls a little less than a
page. I assume that's because it's assumed to be more reader-friendly when
there's a little overlap between the before and after situations.
Near the start/end of documents the thing gets more annoying. When i press
pageDown when there's not a whole page left to scroll down to, the jump forces
me to visually scan the page and search for the spot i stopped reading before
hitting the key 

I think this is a better place to report this then at Ubuntu brainstorm, where
i reported this earlier, see http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/21929/
