No need to fill it because the link i gave [1] has 3 links on it to the issue

And there is a whole lot more if you search for it.
Also in unix it "seems" to be the default action to paste text when you press 
the scrollwheel.
I don't know who or how that was ever made up but i don't think that "standard" 
should be followed in firefox.

And one of ubuntu's goals is to have a seamless transition between
Windows and Linux right? then this autoscroll should be set to true
since that's the default for windows. (described here [5])

The idea is simple. A windows user that starts using Linux (ubuntu
distribution) is gonna expect to have autoscroll when they press the
mousewheel.
