Public bug reported:
How to reproduce the bug
* open a long PDF in evince, or a long webpage in Firefox (this page should do)
* sroll with touchpad (two-fingers on my system)
* when you take of your fingers from the touchpad, the document keeps on
scrolling, slowing down (like inertia)
* before it has completely stopped, press CTRL (pretend you want to do CTRL+F,
for example)
* the document zooms (in or out, depending on the direction of the scroll and
your configuation)
I think I understand what happens here: in order to provide the
"inertia" in the scrolling, the touch pas emits "scroll" events even
after I stoped moving my finders, and as soon as I press CTRL, *those*
events are interpreted as zoom events. But this is very annoying. I
would expect that those "extra" events inherit modifiers from the
"original" events, no matter what happens on the keyboard.
Also, it happened to me quite a lot recently (14.04 upgrade?), so I
suspect this might be due to a recent change.
