[V8] Window down

[Seamus O'Carey]

Rather than pressing it harder, just try pressing it repeatedly.  The right
rear window in my silver car would go down, but not up.  I tapped the switch
a bunch and every once in a while it would make contact and I was able to
inch it up (eventually).

I think we still say "roll" them up or down, partly as a throwback to a time
when that was more true (English has a lot of words/sayings like this), but
also because it is still technically true.  Even though we're hitting a
switch, there's still a motor that is turning and rolling the window up/down
for us.  :D
