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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
