Comment 3 for bug 990260

I also experience this behavior, just scrolling some text in GEdit.
It's usually fine at slower speeds but once you want to get somewhere fast, everything starts jumping around.

It would also be great to be able to "throw" text away (scrolling continues for a while after fingers are released).
If possible, a way to invert the scrolling direction for two-finger scroll would be nice since it's actually more natural once you get used to it.
