I already have per-pixel scrolling with my touchpad. Versions:

Computer: Lenovo Ideapad s205 (with Synaptics touchpad)
Touchpad settings: Inertial scrolling off (doesn’t matter)
KDE Neon 5.15
Plasma 5.15.4
KDE Frameworks 5.57.0
Qt 5.12.0
Kernel 4.18.0-17-generic

All applications have per-pixel scrolling, Konsole and Kate have per-line
scrolling. Only Firefox does junk.

Scrolling with a mouse wheel (simulated with xdotool) gives stepwise scrolling
(not animated) in Okular and most other applications. In some widgets, like
QAbstractItemView (like in Dolphin), it gives smooth scrolling (stepwise,
animated).

(Just for info: I don’t like smooth scroling (stepwise, animated), because when
I send saccadic scroll commands (what the mouse wheel mechanic enforces), my
eyes also want to move saccadic. So, after the saccadic eye movement, I have to
wait until the animation is over. Please do not implement smooth scrolling
(stepwise, animated) anywhere without an option to turn it off.)

So, questions are:
How to activate smooth scrolling (mouse wheel stepwise, animated) in Okular?
Should this bug be closed, because Okular already supports per-pixel scrolling?
