--- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Sure, I'll set it back for UX to kick it round.

But still, what UX do you expect? 

As explained the current "thumb" on the scroll bar represents a view port into
the current document, at a specific zoom.  That view port--at a given zoom
level--will move. By drag of the thumb, by mouse click on the scroll bar, or by
click or click-hold on the arrow ends of the scrollbar.

Beyond the viewport size relationship, between page count and zoom level,
movements of the view port is relative to the view port--not some
object/position on the document page.

And if you need precise movements, that requires use of Reminder, Bookmark
objects in the Document. Or upon the other movement UNO commands, eg.
GoToNextPara, GoToPrevPara, GoToNextPage, GoToPrevPage, GoToEndOfDoc,
GoToStartOfDoc, and etc. 

Or possibly shifting Navigator to the 'Recency' navigate-by mode (like a web
browsers back button).

Point is the Scrollbar controls are not something to focus on for precise
positioning within a document.
