As a user, my main gripes even with ‘great implementations’ are:
- not knowing how ‘long’ the page is as the native browser scroll bars can not be accurate.
- breaks ‘find on page’
- page up/page down keys rarely work as expected (admittedly this an implementation issue)
All that being said, it bothers me less when on a touchscreen device or when using an Apple trackpad. Desktop with a mouse/trackball or keyboard only nav is always painful.
