Title:
  not properly focusing multiple windows with mouse scroll

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

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04
  Unity Installed: 7.2.0+14.04.20140410.1-0ubuntu1

  In 13.10 DOWN scroll with pointer hovering over multiple launcher icon would go through application's (1) windows and if there maxmized window of other app (2), only one instance of (1) will be displayed over (2). 
  Scroll UP would bring all windows of (1) over (2) one-by-one.

  But now, in 14.04, scolling UP does exactly what DOWN works, just in
  another direction.

  Thats bad desing, because now is impossible to bring up multiple win.
  of app quickly.

  For instance, I have maximized and focused Firefox open, and 2 windows of Nautilus behind. Now, I want to copy files from one folder to other by drag-and-drop. 
   - What WOULD I do is: 2 scrolls UP hovering Nautilus launcher icon, and do copying (because both windows are in front of Firefox).
   - What I NOW need to do. Click or one scroll to bring up one window of Nautlis, now Click AGAIN to app spread, and select other window!!
