133035 - New Option for Mouse Wheel Behavior: scroll half page

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, enhancement)

Description

[Devin Bayer]

I would like there to be an option in the Advanced->Mouse Wheel section that has
the mouse wheel "Scroll one half a page up or one half a page down".

Why do I want this?
Because moving an entire page sometimes will not get tables and pictures aligned
the way I want them.  It is too course.
Moving one line at a time is far too slow.
Moving more than 4 lines at a time will sometimes make messages in the Mail/News
section be skipped over because the "page" is only a couple lines long.

How about 

[O] Scroll by [_____] percent of the page.

50 would scroll half the page. 25 would scroll by a quarter. etc.

Sorry.  No more mousewheel prefs.  And you haven't explained what the problem is
with the default scroll rate of 3 lines.

The problem with 3 lines at a time is that it is too slow when a page is 50 
lines long.
