Comment (by pulkomandy):
2 and 9 applied in hrev48376.
I noticed some problems with the first patch. There are annoying scrolling
interactions and off by one errors.
* When you start the application, it scrolls to the end of the character
list and shows nothing. But when hovering with the mouse you can see there
are some "ghost" characters there (?). It should show the start of the
list instead.
* Sometimes the next item in the block list is selected. For example
select "Phaistos disk", then hover some characters on it, notice it
instead highlights the next item in the block list. Probably happens only
with short blocks. All items untill "Hangul Syllabs" are ok, starting from
"CJC compatibility ideograms" they are off by one.
* When you hover a character that is not fully visible at the bottom of
the list, there is an attempt to scroll it into view automatically.
However since this is done on just mouse hover, and it scrolls the list,
the mouse may end up above another character. And then the list will
scroll again. Sometimes it will jump down by several blocks before it
stops. I think the character list should never scroll on mouse hover, only
on clicks or mousewheel.
