Here I'm called back with exactly one GTK_SCROLL_STEP notification as

#0  xg_scroll_callback (range=0x183a3b0, scroll=GTK_SCROLL_STEP_FORWARD, value=244073, user_data=0x15410a0) at ../../src/xterm.c:5673

Otherwise, IIUC nothing would happen since GTK_SCROLL_JUMP expects
that the mouse has been grabbed in order to send a scroll_bar_event.
But maybe I'm misreading the code.
