[More Info] Bug in Scrolling List with pictures in 2.2

I just noticed the same problem in the script editor, so it's not 
related to pictures in the scrolling list as I thought.

Open a script editor window and show the list of handlers.  If the 
handler list scrolls (only happens when  you scroll down) drag the 
scrolling thumb down and you will see little white lines appear across 
some of the handler names.  (This does not happen when you use the 
scroll arrows because it appears to scroll evenly, into white space on 
each scroll.)

This is a really big problem as it appears to affect all scrolling 
lists.   Any chance of a quick fix in 2.2.1?

Thanks,
-- Frank
