Yes, it auto-scrolls as it always used to on linux current trunk.

This is a must-fix for TB3 IMO, but Bug 343729 is flagged blocking 1.9, so should be no need to request blocking TB 3.0 here, unless they bail on fixing 343729 in 1.9.  

Magnus, I don't recall why I reguested you to check, perhaps it is because Bug 343729 is marked windows-only but I don't see that anyone tested it on mac or linux. Thanks for checking.
