I suggest that decision on the action for this bug should only consider
the behavior regarding scroll-wheel over the desktop and should
disregard the (buggy) behavior of scrolling over "dead zones".

The "dead zones" bug, mentioned by Jeffrey Baker on 2009-06-15, is actually already reported here:
Bug #277195 (Mouse scroll wheel moves between desktops when over parts of application windows)

As suggested there by Lightbreeze (
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/277195/comments/10
), these are separate bugs.  Clearly, though, turning off scroll-wheel
desktop switching would only _hide_ the effects of that bug until a user
turned it on somehow.
