If the scroll bar extended past the header line, users would expect
that line to scroll, which it doesn't.

Anyway, this is how the header line was designed and implemented in
Emacs.  We have tabulated-list-mode for the other kind.  The Info
reader uses the header line for a good reason: it shows there stuff
that needs to be always visible, so it cannot be the first line of the
buffer, or behave like one.
