EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Retina MacBook Pro

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
After scrolling with the trackpad (two finger drag), additional spurious MouseWheelEvents are generated whenever the track pad is used, specifically they seem to occur when you touch track pad with two fingers and then release.

REGRESSION. Last worked in version 8u112

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile and run the test program below. Use the scroll wheel to scroll the list up and down (in my case, by touching track pad with two fingers and dragging up and down). Then, right click in the list (by touching track pad with two fingers and clicking the track pad). A popup menu appears, but disappears again immediately as soon as you release the track pad. Additionally, touching the track pad with two fingers (not clicking) and releasing again does another mouse wheel move in the original direction.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The popup menu should stay up, and touching and releasing the trackpad without dragging shouldn't scroll.
ACTUAL -
See steps to reproduce

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
