Please take a look at the screenshot I posted: https://cloudup.com/c8K9RMqPeDn Assuming you were using Firefox, what would you think about those two white scrollbars that stick out like a sore thumb in a dark interface?

Actually, that would not solve the issue that led me to offer the bounty. Check out the difference between the scrollbars in Webflow rendered across Webkit (Safari, Chrome, Opera) and Firefox: https://cloudup.com/c8K9RMqPeDn

There was another app from another YC company that _used_ to be online at one point (I believe it was called "PG Bot"), but had been taken down when we needed it. So we wrote something from scratch, but very similar.

Yes, I agree, and web design tools should enforce/encourage good usability. Good usability doesn't have to be tied to software or code.
