That just sounds terrible. I want the program's scroll bar to reflect the actual size as accurately as possible. Anything else just sounds annoying.

One example is the scroll bar map mode implemented in various text editors where a scaled down version of the content is shown to help you see where you are. Similarly a browser could visualize the size and location of certain elements (e.g. <article> and <section>) on the scroll bar. The key here is that it is the browser doing it so that you have a choice in wheter you want it or not on all websites.
