Description Lauro Moura 2020-11-13 19:38:27 PST
bug218842 changed 'wheel' and 'mousewheel' events on root objects to be passive if they were not explicitly registered as non-passive. Most of the work is done but this feature is hidden under a mac-specific version check enabled only when linking with new versions of the SDK.

Considering GTK/WPE release scheme, could it be enabled directly?

New tests timing out due to this:

It's also timing out and related to the bugs previously mentioned.
