Public bug reported:

I'm on Lubuntu Utopic (alpha 2), but I am almost sure this was the very
same in Trusty (stable).

This is actually no big thing, just kindly asking for some more logical
default configuration (in particular to ease life for new users).

$HOME/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml

(Might be originally derived from /etc/X11/openbox/rc.xml, but I rather
have my doubts: the .xml in /etc has two or more parameters in one line,
whilst the one in $HOME has all those lines broken up in separate ones
(which might explain the huge difference in lines of text)

    730     <context name="Desktop">
    731       <mousebind button="Up" action="Click">
    732         <action name="GoToDesktop">
    733           <to>previous</to>
    734         </action>
    735       </mousebind>
    736       <mousebind button="Down" action="Click">
    737         <action name="GoToDesktop">
    738           <to>next</to>
    739         </action>
    740       </mousebind>

Shouldn't this actually be assigned to Up = next and Down = previous?
It sounds more logical to me. The funny thing is that with either assignment of 
directions, it will not show to the user UNLESS number of desktops is greater 
than 2. This is why I never complained before, since I only have had 3 desktops 
since a few days. :)
