I submitted a patch prior to 21.1 which introduced a delay after using
the scroll wheel during which a mouse-2 click would be ignored.
It worked very well, but didn't make it into the release (it was
rejected because it didn't add generic mouse-wheel support -- only
solved this specific problem).
Maybe it would be time to look at it again for 21.3.
