I think what Jeff is talking about is that the event <MouseWheel>   
needs to be able to return information about both vertical and  
horizontal scrolling.

Currently, <MouseWheel>  events only return a %D (delta) value that is  
assumed to be vertical. We need new values, like %D for vertical (as  
it is now) and %H for the horizontal. Revar meant to suggest this,  
but made a small mistake and said "Perhaps %D for the vertical, like  
we have now, and %V for the vertical?", which is not what he meant.  
(See how good I am at reading people's minds :-)
