imwheel may be grabbing the mouse on root or some parent window well below the
client window and so e just never gets the event. all u can really do is
wrestle with imwheel or stop using it :/

in theory this is perfectly possible - in fact you could write a module to do
it - but in core e - it can't. it has no such feature. since this is something
a module COULD do - i'll leave it up to an inventive coder out there to make
such a module :)
