IMHO, this is quite an annoying regression. Just in case it's not obvious what the effect is, there are steps to reproduce it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1240957: you just have to run two apps like gnome-terminal and nautilus and try using the mouse wheel to scroll them. nautilus no longer scrolls with the mouse wheel unless it has focus, whereas gnome-terminal always scrolls. Scrolling without requiring focus has always been one of the nice things about X desktops, and now it's inconsistent and broken.
