Hi,

I encountered a problem while using a touchpad/trackpad.  
Step:

1. [CodeMirror: Search/Replace Demo](https://codemirror.net/demo/search.html)
2. The code mirror block in the demo page does not react well while using a touchpad/trackpad to scroll vertically with two fingers: the horizontal scrollbar is easy to shift/move while (vertically) scrolling. Usually, it’s hard to scroll 100% vertically with a touchpad/trackpad, so I want to let the horizontal scrollbar be more “fixed” while using the touchpad/trackpad.
3. Another example: [Cursor problem](https://discuss.codemirror.net/t/cursor-problem/1378), the code block’s horizontal scrollbar is not such easy to “shift” while scrolling.

Are there any methods to let codemirror act like [Cursor problem](https://discuss.codemirror.net/t/cursor-problem/1378) while doing vertical scrolling using trackpad/touchpad? Thanks a lot.
