I use GtkNotebooks in my app (moserial), and I find this behaviour annoying.
Typically the user (well, me) wants to rapidly scroll some text in a
textarea in the notebook, flings the wheel, and nudges the mouse
accidentally over the tabs. In my app's case, this shifts between ASCII
and HEX views, to general bafflement.
I can't think of a case where you would to rapidly switch through
notebook tabs. Slow single-clicks are just fine for manipulating the tabs.
+1 for removing the wheel-changes-tabs functionality.
