Chrome 61.0.3163.100 suddenly stops scrolling when using middle mouse button in "virtual-scroll" tables like slickgrid


When using the middle Mousebutton (click once and drag) to scroll the table, the browser reliably stops scrolling after a second. This only happens in Chrome's latest build (61.0.3163.100), it definitely did not happen before.

Slickgrid Demo to illustrate the problem. http://mleibman.github.io/SlickGrid/examples/example1-simple.html

Does anyone know what causes this? It is not a slickgrid specific problem. I noticed this behaviour with several other virtual-scroll table frameworks.
