I have done it without scrollbars - but it takes special sort of objects which have this.parent.parent.scrollme(this) in their .gotfocus, and the parent and parent.parent are both containers. So, this scrolls a container within another container. Works for me, but takes some fiddling and doesn't look that intuitive.

I may add a scrollbar, but it's presently not necessary, because this type of form I'm developing is for heavy keyboarding and as little mousing as possible.
