Overlay scrollbars

Description
Have you ever considered using overlay scrollbars? I've made this an option in ROXTerm and I prefer it enabled. I tend to use the scrollbars in a terminal less than in other typical applications, and on a laptop I appreciate the extra space. It makes sense to be rid of them especially when using something like vim.
IIRC you use a GtkBox containing the VteTerminal widget and the scrollbar, instead of using GtkScrolledWindow, so it might seem like a difficult change. However, I was doing the same in ROXTerm; it didn't take me long to make the change and I didn't have a hard time with unwanted side-effects.
