System Information
Windows 8.1, also Linux Mint 17.3

Blender Version
Broken: 2.77

Short description of error
Enabling 'Region Overlap' in the system preferences will allow the horizontal scrollbar in the VSE to scroll behind the properties panel, thus preventing it from being clicked on.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Enable 'Region Overlap' in System preferences, also Triple Buffering if needed
Switch to a screen layout that includes the VSE in Sequencer mode
Enable the properties panel on the VSE
Scroll the scrollbar to the right, it will slide behind the properties panel and be inaccessible

Maybe region overlap should be disabled for this editor?

This is more of a TODO. Its worked like this for a long time, there is some conflict with this option but its quite usable too.

Note, this bug is still in existence, and still makes the horizontal scrollbar impossible to use in the vse. And, as of 2.8, it seems the region overlap is now enabled by default, meaning that the vse is broken in the default setup...

Also, I didnt test this originally so im not sure if it was the case back then, but this seems to ONLY affect the vse, and not other 2d editors with scrollbars...

Please click on the gif for an illustration of the problem when ex. swapping the position of the panel, where the vertical scrollbar completely disappears, making it impossible to work in the vse:
