Yes, thats true... The toolbar in illume's settings is easier to use because 
it doesn't scroll horizontally.

I've noticed this in other apps too. All lists scoll slower if the 
smooth-bounce-back-at-end feature is enabled. Altough it looks very nice, it 
may be too heavy for the freerunners hardware.

But, this also seems to be a common problem of elementary. For example look at 
Neon. It scrolls really smooth. I have no idea what toolkit they use, 
though...

Apart from this I'd vote for the toolbar and against the dropdown list.

Thanks c_c!
