I really enjoy the new mockups but I have always been annoyed by those clunky scrollbars. Especially on my netbook I often encounter webpages that are exactly 1024 px wide, which means Firefox (or any other Browser) cannot display the page completely because of the few pixels the right-hand scrollbar takes up and therefore creates a bottom scrollbar (that again takes up a lot of screen real estate) just to scroll a few pixels to the right.
Since you have got a mouse with a scrollwheel on most systems or some sort of mousepad gesture for scrolling, having scrollbars that limit the space available for a webpage seems unnecessary. I would suggest fading the standard scrollbars out (and not having them affect the way your page is displayed) until you move the courser near them.
Another option would be creating skinny black bars similar to the ones on the iPhone version of Safari when moving on a webpage. They could fade in and be graspable when hovering near them or when scrolling with your mousewheel to give a perception of the length of the webpage. (Check out this mockup: [[Media:Scrollbar_fade.jpg]])
I would appreciate a change like that very much, especially in fullscreen mode.
