I would much rather like to see the dynamic scrolling support as can be seen in Mac OS X. Scroll the mouse slowly and content only scrolls a few pixels or lines. Scroll the mouse fast and the content scrolls my much larger amounts. I'm not a Mac OS X user, but I think that behaviour is fantastic.

I think all widgetsets could do with that behaviour as well.
