Thankyou Martin, I was unaware of this and it does seem useful -- will
investigate further.

To me, this does seem like a good idea.  The reasons being:
1) this would be my first natural guess to reverse a scroll, possibly from
muscle memory coming
from shift-tabbing between tabs (eg. browswers), which I think might be
rather ubiquitous (speculation)
2) it is similar to the addition of S to C-M-v nomal scrollers

be my first guess as a way to reverse a scroll, and it is also how C-M-v is
already reversed.

I  think it should, as M-v doesn't seem to have any use in the minibuffer
there AFAICT.

Thankyou !!!
