           Summary: There should be an option to reverse scroll direction
                    when using mousewheel/touchpad gesture
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: davidomundo at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

Right now, scrolling the mousewheel or using gestures on a touchpad scrolls the
pages by moving the scroller in the direction of the wheel/gesture.

Instead, the document/page should be scrolled in the direction of the
wheel/gesture, as if the document is grabbed and dragged, much like how mobile
devices work. The grab/drag metaphor is gaining traction with the explosion of
mobile device usage, and even Apple is changing the scroll direction in OSX
Lion.

KDE should at least have the option for users to choose the scrolling metaphor
they like.

Reproducible: Didn't try
