Wheel events use the wheel transaction to populate the event target, while mousewheel events do not. mousewheel events are deprecated, but they are still used and there do seem to be some cases in the wild where this causes a less than great scrolling experience.

This was actually a misdiagnosis on my part. I thought the issue was that we were not handling mousewheel events properly, but in fact we were not handling wheel transactions properly when scrolling over a iframe. The real cause of this issue is fixed by bug 1902017 and bug 1888946.
