Scrollbar events

   I'd love to get access to scrollbar events for the Syntax Edit class.

I'm trying to create a two-pane diff window, and I can't figure out a reliable way to sync up the two text views.  Ideally, whenever the user scrolls one of the views, the other one would follow suit.

I can get partway there by having a very fast timer that examines the TopRow of each pane to see if it has changed recently, but that's pretty ugly.  It's also only a partial solution, because I'd like for the horizontal scrollbars to match, too.

I know that the ReportControl allows external scrollbars to be attached, but there are some deficiencies there (e.g., after setting the .Value of a scrollbar programmatically, the scrollbar thumb is in the right place, but the ReportControl doesn't reflect the new position).
