Bug Description

In Ubuntu 13.04, if you go to the Settings -> Mouse & Touchpad -> check "Content sticks to fingers", then you get 'natural scrolling' as for cell phones, for example. Now if you enable horizontal scrolling (via Alt + F2 -> dconf-editor -> org -> gnome -> settings-daemon -> peripherals -> touchpad -> check horiz-scroll-enabled), then scrolling horizontally does not respect this rule. It uses "classical" (horizontal) scrolling instead. So in case if both "Content sticks to fingers" and horizontal scrolling are activated, the latter should change its scrolling direction, too, everything else contradicts logic.
