There is a scroll delta in the wheel event. I don't think it's read now by xrdp. My guess is that with this Mac client, the delta is much bigger. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc240586.aspx The low 8 bits in flags is a value between 0 and 0xff to indicate the scroll delta I think. We will have to come up with a ratio of "button 4 / 5 clicks" to "delta" to fix this.
