Interesting way to indicate how much content is above or below.
I don't think this could replace the scrollbar though. The scrollbar not only shows page position, but also an estimate of page length and most of all it can be interacted with. This alternative is an indicator, the scollbar is an indicator and controller.
I know that most of us, myself included, swipe either on screen or on our mouse to scroll down. However the scrollbar is pretty good at providing a fast way to navigate a page.
