147576 - tab switching should be possible with scroll wheel / buttons

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 144179

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

Description

[Laurens Schrijnemakers]

It would be great to go to Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Mouse wheel and be
able to bind eg. [control] + mouse wheel up/down to 'switch tabs'. 
This is especially nice on many laptops, where [control] and [page up/down]
can't be pressed with one hand. Laptops usually have scroll buttons though,
acting like a mouse wheel; these can easily be pressed in combination with eg.
[control] or [alt] keys.
An alternative to this would be mirroring [page up/down] behaviour if one sets
[control] + mouse wheel to 'Scroll a page up or a page down'; this would then
result in tab switching when [control] + [shift] are pressed while the mouse
wheel is turned.
 
If there is any other way to accomplish said behaviour I would be very happy as
well.
