Wanted to chime in on how annoying this "feature" is.  In particular the
desktop switch when mouse wheel event occurs on desktop.  Whats worse is
that certain parts of some GTK interfaces (labels, for example on the
nvidia-settings program) and other unexpected parts of some GUIs will
also cause this desktop switching behavior, despite the fact the cursor
is over the application window (its really bad when its things like the
trough near a scroll bar).  I've been using Linux for about 12 years now
and gnome since early 1.0 releases and its things like this, that make
it feel like its progressing backwards in usability, probably an
exaggeration, but reflects just how $&*...@ing annoying this is.  I think
this option should be disabled by default.  If some masochistic user
wants to enable it, give them a gconf option somewhere, call it
something like "/desktop/gnome/really-annoying-desktop-switch-mouse-
wheel-hell".
