As far as I can tell in both Windows and Java the mousewheel event
is always and only sent to the control with focus. However, within
an app anything can be done with that event. The app would keep
track of mousemove events to know which window the mouse was in and
then the mousewheel event would be 'reflected' from the focus window
to the window where the mouse was. I think the J low level
mousewheel event and data is at the right level and the app can do
what it wishes.
Barring serious problems there won't be more mousewheel changes for
this release.
Even so - horizontal scroll "wheel" support would be
very nice in the IDE.
Regardless, can you please consider not repositioning
the cursor on the click event that focuses the window.
