Does the xterm protocol allow to report wheel events, or does it only
allow to report mouse-click events? If the latter, I don't see how
you could map the events in any way different from what we have now,
i.e. via a user-controlled setting.

The "GUI" part is not important in what I wrote, you can replace it
with "UI" or even with nothing. I was talking about the APIs we use
to access the mouse events.
