--- Comment #1 from Alexander Mikhaylenko <alexm at gnome.org> ---
Implementing it server-side isn't viable, since on Linux we also have touchscreen scrolling. For touchscreen you have no way of knowing whether this particular swipe was scrolling or something else server-side. With multitouch especially this can get very complex, e.g. consider a pinch gesture like you would use for zooming, but with both fingers being in different windows. In that case both have to be treated like independent pan/scroll gestures with regular kinetic deceleration after.

So all in all implementing it client-side makes total sense to me.

Agree it should be cumulative, especially on touch. Currently Librem 5 ships a downstream patch to reduce the deceleration factor from 4 to 1 to work around touch scrolling being too slow.
