Yeah, title says it all. But really, I think they should do something about the look and feel of the scroll bar on the metro start menu. What do you think they should do?

Because I would enjoy it a lot more if it were just a single white bar with no background that only appears when you hover over it. What would you guys have it be?

    Other Info
    Look, what i've created... just a few visits at the recyclement center was enough...
You know, I once wanted the scroll bar to be a chunk of the Aero design, so it would be a transparent colored scroll bar...

But after being immersed in the metro design, I'd like to see it a bit differently. Microsoft's Mouse and Keyboard control panel has this scroll bar that is real neat. A simple black bar with a thin black line down the middle of it to show the scroll length. Although, I'd like it to be colored... :)
