Bug Description
In bug #1081843, the following design was given:
"If the application *is not* in focus when the user moves their pointer over the Launcher app icon, the first mouse wheel click towards or away from the user should focus the application, and bring the top most window in the application's z stack to the front of the global z stack. Subsequent clicks of the mouse wheel the operate exactly as described above."
However, a community member recently brought up the issue that this is not expected behavior and posted as such in that bug. Mark Shuttleworth then responded that that design is a mistake and that nothing should happen when using the mouse scroll wheel over a Launcher icon of an unfocused app, no matter how many windows are associated with it.
This bug is to fix that design.
