Bug is based on my last comments from
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/screen/+bug/106995

Environment:
Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
gnome-terminal 3.6.2
libvte 0.34.9
screen 4.1.0

The problem is:
1. screen is running from gnome-terminal
2. mouse wheel scrolling generates up/down events which ends up as bash history 
scrolling instead of gnome-terminal history scrolling
3. if run cat command, then mouse wheel ends up as esc-keys: 
^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[B^[[B^[[B^[[B^[[B

Gnome-terminal's option about alternate screen is not working anymore in trusty 
ubuntu release, but it has been working in precise release.
As I said in bug 106995: gnome-terminal's option about alternatre screen 
doesn't do anything with vte, so it's useless, but if I understand this patch 
in vte right it set alternate screen option true value on initialization 
automatically.

I suspect that problem is in gnome-terminal, because this problem
doesn't exists in screen run from xterm or rxvt terminal.
