I can reproduce something very similar to what you're describing indeed,
when I try and Shift+DownScroll, which should scroll to the right, it
somewhat works but seems to randomly scroll right or left, which leads
to a lot of flickering back and forth, and a barely usable feature.

Debian GNU/Linux 9.4 (x86_64), GTK 3.22.11, GLib 2.50.3, Geany 1.33+

I would suspect a bug in the horizontal scroll handling reading a
seemingly random value for the scroll direction (or possibly, a conflict
in direction between smooth and regular scroll).  I'm afraid I won't
have time to look at anything before at least a week, but that might be
a lead if somebody is interested at looking at this.

Not really ^^

It's not intended, and it's probably a bug.
