--- Comment #11 from Jonathan Doman <jonathan.doman at gmail.com> ---
In my experience, this behavior is common in windows applications but in fact
very rare on linux. Chromium implements this on windows, but the developers
refuse to do so on linux because "it's not a linux behavior" and because middle
click already has a set of confusing precedents
(https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=17689).

The X11 evdev EmulateWheel setting should provide a similar functionality
without having to implement it in every application. I just tested it and it
correctly overrides the zoom in okular. Personally, I don't think there's any
need to add this to okular.
