Honestly, I don't see why middle click should function on inactive
launchers by default but not the wheel. But as long as long as it can be
turned on somehow I'll be a happy camper.

The use case for this that I think those of us who like it have caught
on to without realizing it is that it doesn't require the mouse to come
to a complete stop to activate. Actually clicking with a moving mouse of
course initiates a drag operation; but with the wheel selection you can
just keep right on moving.

Title:
  Add option to restore behavior of using mouse scrollwheel to focus app
  windows

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The fixes for bug #1263786 and bug #1267888 has caused headaches for
  users who were used to focusing inactive windows using the scrollwheel
  on the Launcher icon of opened apps.

  We should have an option in the CCSM Unity plugin that will allow
  users to restore this behavior if they want that behavior back.
