I see what you are doing as this:

+---------------------------+-+
| Message 10                |^|
| Message 11                |#|
| Message 12                |#|
+---------------------------+#|
| Approx-midway-through-msg |#|
|                           |O|
|                           |#|
|                           |#|
+---------------------------+#|
|                           |#|
| Approx-midway-through-    |#|
| icon-list                 |v|
+---------------------------+-+

So when you scroll along the bar, the message, the icons, and the
headers all scroll. Is this correct?
