Its certainly not the intuitive experience i expect from an apple creation (the webpage , not quicktime per-se) I actually find this to be highly annoying - when i try to scroll to the bottom of the page and inadvertantly end up screwing with a quicktime movie instead, i get mighty peeved very quickly.

To be honest, I had never noticed that effect on movies embedded in web pages before. The scroll-mouse interaction is part of the Quicktime/Movie playback. So far it has worked for me in Safari and OmniWeb.
