Oh... don't let me starting on this :)
I think that Squeak should transparently allow interacting with all
HIDs available on market:
touchscreen, mices , voice control , joystick etc etc ;)

But to be serious.. a first mouse with scrolling wheel appeared long
ago (in scale of computer's evolution).
And most OS-es and GUIs have standartized these input events during
last decade.
And frankly, i don't see a reason, why Squeak VM still using
workarounds for delivering these events to image side.
