   What about splitting the existing modeline into two parts:  
           a scroll-bar part with a width equal to, say, 10 characters,
           a text part corresponding to the current mode line.

Except for the fact that horizontal scrolling is probably mainly
useful in smaller-than-usual width windows.   How much of a mode line
is going to remain?  I already often wind up having large chunks of
the mode line hidden in full sized windows.
