I almost always have the output window in floating mode. And about 50% of the time, if I try to click the output window's scrollbar, I instead go one pixel outside of its bounds on the right hand side (the mouse cursor is over the 1-2 px window frame edge) and instead of scrolling, it gets hidden. It would be nice if the floating windows were a little more forgiving of exiting them by accident - say, a 300ms delay to see if the mouse re-entered it before hiding it or something like that.
not a defect imho
