Hi Dmitry,

I tried to reply to this bug this afternoon by email from my smartphone but it
seems I did not do it correctly.  Sorry for the confusion.

The problem about my patch was that the maintainer thought that we should use
the middle mouse to pan the page (like we do in evince and some 3D modelling
software) instead of scrolling the page (like we do in firefox/adobe reader). 
I proposed that I could implement all of the three modes (zoom, pan, scroll)
and let the user choose them.  It seemed that Albert agreed on this.  However
because that patch works well on my gentoo box and I really do not need to pan
feature, I put this task behind my schedule.  I realized that this patch does
not work on KF5 recently.  But I no longer use KDE frequently (maybe I will be
back in the future) now so I will not work on this in short term. Feel free to
implement it if you want to see this feature in the upstream! Communication
with Albert before working is a good idea to make sure that your patch will be
merged finally.
