No, I'm just saying Flash uses this mechanism, so it will be consistent across
runtimes either way... No idea how Flash handles this, but I remember when we
used the internal AS3 handler it gave a consistent value back because the Flash
player was listening for the event.

I understand what you are trying to do.
I'm not sure I see how it can work though, since the user could have set a
custom acceleration curve for this?
When you say "This is the same mechanism used by Flash." are you saying Flash
documents a scale factor for each browser and we are trying to be compatible with that?
If that's the case, then I am more convinced of this being a reasonable change.

I guess this is a personal preference. Safari seems slow to me now.
Do we really want to be doing this? Won't this make OL apps look "sluggish"
compared with other apps? If Safari and Firefox have different mouse behavior, I would
think we would want OL apps to follow the browser, not try to subvert it.
You ought to update your tools so you get the new improved patch names.
