The reason we needed a new event is that mousewheel is not dispatched for  
anything but vertical scrolling and that authors are expecting it to be  
dispatched for vertical scrolling only.

So then we figured we needed mousewheelx. But since you sometimes want to  
know about both directions a new event was thought of that was dispatched  
prior to those events, multimousewheel that would contain delta  
information for both directions.

So unless there's evidence that all this is not needed I disagree with  
reverting the decision on how to deal with mousewheel events.
