Description
I think it would be best, in its current state, to have the scrollbar show up whenever the scroll widget is hovered over and the scroll bar will fade when the mouse leaves the scroll widget. As it is currently, you have to magically know where the scroll bar is. If you have a large list, you have to guess where it is in order to find it. At least with this new functionality, as long as you're mousing over the scroll component, the bar will be visible. I think it's an ok compromise for now between, having scroll bar visible all the time and having a scrollbar that is above everything.

Research direction
Start by locating the scroll widget implementation in this Rust UI toolkit and read the existing scrollbar visibility behavior. Implement hover-based visibility with fading when the pointer leaves the scroll widget, then verify the scrollbar remains visible while hovered and fades afterward.
