I do not think it's intended.  I actually thought this issue _was_ fixed 
in-tree some time after my first patch for it [1], however I don't use a 
scroll wheel normally (gfx tablet), so I wouldn't necessarily have 
noticed if there was a regression (or maybe even if it was never fixed 
in-tree at all)
