that's something we could add to the wheel method; in fact, now that i look at 
it, i think we should probably rename Wheel to either Seek or Scroll with both 
a delta and a direction (is).

probably; we can pass a string with some defined "well known" values; instead 
of passing button numbers, though, i'd prefer to pass semantics, which would 
also grow nicely to take into consideration multi-touch gestures if we should 
ever get to that point in life ... :)
