Description

Found by @carljbowman in smoketest on 08/17/18:

Gesture scrolling the blocks workspace and palette feels really fast/jumpy. It also feels inconsistent with the more natural scrolling inertia in the Sprite list.

Reproduce gesture scrolling in the blocks workspace and palette on Windows Chrome, then compare it with the Sprite list's scrolling inertia. Investigate the workspace and palette scrolling behavior; done means scrolling no longer feels fast or jumpy and is consistent with the more natural Sprite list behavior.
