Confirmed also there's a touchpad scrolling regression in Unity8/QtMir. Apps that can scroll wityh the touchpad fine in Mir's demo servers can't do so in Unity8.

Although... touchpad scroll sensitivity is really bad even where it works in the Mir demo servers.
Maybe Mir regressed the scroll sensitivity and Qt can't deal with the reduced precision or inconsistent events...

I was wrong. Clients are getting correct scrolling information using two fingers, as seen by:

1 - Open System Settings
2 - Click on "Mouse & Touchpad"
3 - Check the "Scroll with two fingers" box
It then works

I've put the overarching task to Opinion as we might want to change the default values for these settings.

The bug will get lost if we leave it as Invalid or Opinion.
Yes we do need to change the defaults, because presently laptop owners can't scroll at all :)

@vanvugt
Can we at least choose the right packages/projects?
I'm pretty sure ubuntu-ui-toolkit has nothing to do with it whatsoever.
Don't know if qtmir or unity8 would be the place for setting the default config of this libinput(?) stuff...

Sorry, I don't know everything about the Unity8 architecture and sometimes make mistakes in assigning bugs.

Confirmed (using Apple Magic Trackpad) that two-finger scrolling is non-responsive in webbrowser-app and System Settings. But I have also verified that two-finger scrolling still works in Xmir and native GTK apps. So the regression is specific to Qt.
