Now that we've settled on wheel-up and wheel-down, how about adding
something like the following to bindings.el:
(define-key global-map [wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [C-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [C-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [S-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [S-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [S-C-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [S-C-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-C-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-C-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-S-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-S-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-S-C-wheel-up] 'mwheel-scroll)
(define-key global-map [M-S-C-wheel-down] 'mwheel-scroll)
We should also add an autoload cookie to `mwheel-scroll'.
We can then remove the (mouse-wheel-mode 1) call in w32-win.el and
in x-win.el we need to add:
(define-key function-key-map [mouse-4] [wheel-up])
(define-key function-key-map [mouse-5] [wheel-down])
(define-key function-key-map [C-mouse-4] [C-wheel-up])
(define-key function-key-map [C-mouse-5] [C-wheel-down])
...
and related friends (ideally we should be able to do this mapping
automatically by querying the X server, but it seems difficult/impossible,
so for now we'll just use function-key-map). Of course, a bit more work
than the above is needed, but I'm just trying to see if we all agree
this is the way to go.

Probably. I'm not sure what X users with >3 button mice + wheel do
with their ZAxisMapping. There are probably enough apps that are
hardwired to use mouse-4 and mouse-5 as the wheel, to force such users
to go to the trouble of mapping buttons 4 and 5 to 6 and 7 so they can
leave 4 and 5 free for the wheel.
I thought there was a way of handling z-axis events in X directly
without the mapping, but after searching now I think I might have
been misled by GDK or vi documentation (both of which basically do the
above function-key-mapping).

That's already the case right now anyway. They can play around with
Emacs bindings if they prefer: the above define-key statements
shouldn't get in their way as far as I can tell.

Indeed, it seems pretty difficult to robustly get the Z-axis events.
