Scroll on the tool bar changes opacity and blur

[rbastide]

When I scroll the tool tabs on the right side of Inkscape, I change opacity an blur unintentionally whit the cursor is over the scroll or blur, or any number input . Sometimes I export objects with 90% opacity without noticing it. It messes up my documents. Really, It happens often for me.

=====
Manjaro 0.8.13, Xfce 4.12
Inkscape 0.91

Please add information about OS/platform and Inkscape version to the bug description, thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to file this report - AFAICt the issue was reported earlier, e.g.
* Bug #1070200 “mouse wheel scrolling in dialog causes unintended consequences”
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1070200
(and likely in older reports before that, too)

Since this behavior is not limited to the two sliders in 'Fill and Stroke', proposing to link as duplicate to bug #1070200 for now.

Just curious - you never encounter the same behavior in other GTK2 apps (e.g. GIMP, or even gtk-demo) with GUI widgets receiving scroll events on hover (combobox dropdown menus, sliders) even if not having current focus?

I run Manjaro 0.8.13, Xfce 4.12, but I remember this issue at the time I used Gnome on a Debian machine as well.
This only happens in Inkscape as far as I know. I must admit I don’t use Gimp a lot but I use Scribus a lot (GTK app?), and it doesn’t have any scrollbar on the toolbar so conflicts doesn’t exist.

JFTR - Scribus uses Qt, not GTK2.
