Hi David. According to bugs.kde.org, you are the maintainer of the
kdesktop source. If I am wrong, please let me know :)

I wrote this little patch and I think others would find it extremely
usefull as well. It duplicates the functionality in E whereby if you
scroll the mousewheel on your desktop, it switches virtual desktops
either backward or forward depending on the direction.

I realize some would not want to have this function, and that it should
probably by some kind of option under Desktop settings, but I know
nothing about programming the KDE gui, so I'll just forward this along
to you and you can do what you want with it! It only affects one file,
and is extremely simple.

Happy Trails.
