66998 - Mousewheel should permit top/bottom scrolling

Status: NEW

(Core :: XUL, enhancement, P4)

Description

[Mike Shaver (:shaver emeritus)]

In combination with a modifier (probably), I should be able to use my mousewheel
to scroll immediately to the top or bottom of the current page/scroll-list/etc.

Reasonable request, and easy to implement.

Comment 2

[Kalin Kozhuharov]

Well, now that we have Mousewheel in preferences and one can change some
modifier to go PgUp/PgDn is this still current as a rfe?

May be just adding one more option in the config will help exactly this bug, but
will bloat things more.

A have a Shiht+wheel for a PgUp/PgDn and I can pretty fast go to the beginning
or the end of the page.

Reporter, are you still insisting on a fix for this?

Comment 3

[Mike Shaver (:shaver emeritus)]

While I think you underestimate the scroll-challenge of such things as
lxr:nsCSSFrameConstructor.cpp, I have never "insisted" on a fix for this.  I'm
happy, as in all things, to leave it to bryner's judgement, and graciously
accept a WONTFIX if such is the destiny of this bug.

Brian, still reasonable based on comment 2 and comment 3?
