Me too.  Oh wait... :S

After a bit more investigation, I'm not actually sure what is claimed to 
be the bug is here.

On previous versions of Windows, we don't have the "Scroll inactive 
windows when I hover over them" option, so we always get the behaviour 
that when the focus is on the "View" drop-down list, scrolling the mouse 
wheel moves up and down that list.

But surely this is right (if unhelpful), that's where the focus is, 
after all...

(Up until 2.875, this was a button which cycled around the possible 
views, rather than a drop-down list, so we didn't have this problem)

This unhelpfulness is compounded by the fact that clicking in the 
package list does not move the focus to it (because we use some 
home-grown monstrosity rather than a list control), so perhaps that is 
what should be fixed?
