Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

After enabling Desktop Effects on Gutsy, using the mouse wheel over the desktop 
switches between desktops. I think this feature should not be enabled by 
default:
- by enabling this feature, switching on the "Visual Effects" unexpectedly (for 
me as user) changes functionality - while I think this is indeed a feature that 
could be useful, in my opinion it should have a setting on its own, instead of 
"sneaking in" with the Desktop effects :-)
- personally, I have problems with this feature, as my notebook mouse is quite 
sensitive for touching the mousewheel. When the mouse is over the desktop, it 
occasionally happens that I touch the wheel strong enough to accidentally 
switch screens, which is quite annoying.

As a side problem, I have not found a way to disable this feature
without installing ccsm - so I suppose disabling this feature will for
most users involve googling, instead of intuitively finding a checkbox
somewhere that disables this feature.

Summary:
I would appreciate if this behavior is disabled by default.
