** Description changed:

  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.

+ gnome-terminal calls vte_terminal_reset in terminal-window.c which set
+ alternate screen flag to true, it's strange that it doesn't work.
+ 
  I suspect that problem is in gnome-terminal, because this problem
  doesn't exists in screen run from xterm or rxvt terminal.
