Okay, we know this is always going to be device and, to some degree, human
specific.

I have an Gen3 X1 Carbon. While typing in $EDITOR my cursor occasionally jumps
around to to scroll events while typing. It appears to be due to my resting
palm interaction with the touchpad.

I'd say it happens anywhere from 10-20x a day. Generally I just undo and work
around it.

Attached is a recording from evemu-record. I just played around with the
keyboard typing until i caused some undesired scrolls. So those will be at the
end of the log.

Best of luck and let me know if I can record more reproducers to help cancel
things out.
