I am no longer able to apply key bindings for Ctrl+MOUSE_WHEEL_UP and Ctrl+MOUSE_WHEEL_DOWN through the key map options panel in a7a0e8178e1be0c6aa34102fc19888c8330e534e. After assigning the Ctrl+MOUSE_WHEEL_UP or Ctrl+MOUSE_WHEEL_DOWN binding to an action, I click OK to apply the options. After this, the bindings do not work, and if I go right back to the key map options the customized bindings do not appear.
There are several bugs: a/ if the special key popup is visible, then OK button is hit by mouse, the input box changes are cancelled. To work around this issue, hit ENTER to confirm the changed shortcut prior to closing the dialog. b/ global actions persist OK, but editor actions do not c/ the MOUSEWHEEL seems to be ONLY handled at the editor level, if mousewheel shortcuts are assigned to global actions (e.g. Save As.., silly example, I know), it will not work. I'll try to fix a + b; fixing (c) will be more tough I think.
The (c) is currently out of scope; as Mito (author of mousewheel support in editor) said, it was never intended to support mouse gestures in shortcuts in general. I filed enhancement issue #222848 for this.
