I can confirm that this is the observed behavior. (I guess I'm just twitchy - my scrolls usually don't last that long.) I'd disable gesture support with --disable-gestures, but that doesn't work either - bug #876702. Thank goodness it's easy to build custom packages from source.

Additional info: Input device is a BCM5974 on an Apple Macbook Air 3.1. Behavior returns to normal when I download the source package and rebuild without the libgrip patch, so it's definitely a bug in the interaction with the utouch stack. Other multitouch (libgrip/geis) gestures (pinch-to-zoom, twist-to-rotate) work just fine. Switching the touchpad to edge-scrolling works fine.
