People will put their finger anywhere in the screen to scroll, because this does not normally translate to interactions with controls. I can put my finger on the submit-button in this comment form and scroll the page. This is fundamental to how touch interactions are expected to work, so it's going to look like a bug when it happens. Most internet devices are touch devices, so keeping things touch friendly is important when we design custom controls. 🙂
