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. -- Kim F.
