[TYPO3-dev] typo3/mod.php does NOT allow scrolling

Hi guys (n gals),

I just wanted to ask whether you considr this a bug or an intended 
"feature" before I supply a patch.

Background:
typo3/stylesheet.css sets all body tags with the ID typo3-mod-php to 
height 100% and overflow hidden.

This involves all backend modules that use mod.php (see 
typo3/template.php on line 235, which changes typo3/mod.php to 
typo3-mod-php).

At least for me this makes no sense, since scrolling in modules might 
appear from time to time.

In order to break next to nothing I suggest to remove the selector 
body#typo3-mod-php from the stylesheet rule and copy the selector to

body#typo3-mod-php {
	padding: 0;
	margin: 0;
	overflow: auto;
	height: 100%;
}

Another option would be to leave the module body like it is but then 
give the div.typo3-bigDoc 100% height and overflow: auto;

Suggestions please.

Mathias
