Description bat 2022-03-23 02:32:48 UTC
SUMMARY
With more than one tab in Yakuake opened, the mouse scroll cycles through tabs, which often happens by accident when scrolling terminal content and moving the mouse cursor to the bottom a bit too much.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Yakuake
2. Open multiple tabs
3. Hover over the tab bar and use mouse screel

OBSERVED RESULT
Mouse wheel switches active tabs back and forth.

EXPECTED RESULT
Mouse wheel continues scrolling through active tab's terminal content when the feature is disabled in settings.
Alternatively mouse wheel can just do nothing when the feature is disabled in settings.

When working with the terminal most users are aware what they're doing and when wanting to switch to another tab one has a specific tab in mind. Accidental cycling through tabs should not happen, so there at least should be an option in the settings to disable this behaviour.
