just as a "confirmation", OS X does the same thing with scroll events
there. its quite irritating to have to convert a single scroll event
in quartz into N different GDK scroll events in order to maintain the
effect of a large delta value. i would be very happy to see GDK gain a
delta field for scroll events.
