Yes I'm aware of this. But what would be cool is if the scrollbar could be somehow linked to the scrolling in copy mode. One thing I can imagine is just filling the of screen lines each time one changes screens. This would of course create extra flicker as lines scrolled by. I have a script that does this bound to a key. It would be nice if those lines could be filled offscreen somehow. As in first the visible area was redrawn then the copy area so the user might not notice.
I don't think that putty's scrollbar action is going to send anything downstream to the session, but you could potentially detect/hook keystrokes or mouse usage with the right libraries. If you already have a key bound to enter copy mode, why does the putty scrollbar still matter to you?
I can't see a lot of people wanting something like this -- it would mean sending a potentially-large amount of data down the wire every time you switch windows.
