While making the scroll wheel work in popup windows I noticed that the scroll wheel actually works differently on MS-Windows from other systems. In most places the window under the mouse pointer is scrolled. On MS-Windows the window with focus is scrolled.
I don't recall this being reported as a bug, thus I suppose we should enable the behavior with an option. We already have 'mousefocus' thus a logical choice would be 'scrollfocus'. We could theoretically also implement it for non-MS-Windows systems, but with the default "on". Not sure how useful that is, thus I'll leave it for later. For MS-Windows the default would be "off" to keep it backwards compatible. I imagine MS-Windows users are used to this behavior (I actually have the problem in Explorer to scroll the left panel while I want to scroll the right panel).
