Very low priority RFE: horizontal two finger scrolling doesn't work in the
PDE the way it does in most other applications on OS X.

Somehow this is probably possible in Java (Eclipse manages to get it to
work), but it might not be easy, and a quick Google didn't pop up any
information (doesn't help that Apple's support for Java is pretty much
non-existent these days).

Maybe one for the distant future if someone happens to stumble across a way
to enable it...

Wonder if they've implemented it in 1.5 but not 1.6... Eclipse is using swt so that doesn't tell us much unfortunately.

just pointing out: (sadly) the bug applies in general to horizontal scrolling, so this happens also
using a mighty mouse (or any other horizontal-scrolling enabled mouse like some logitech ones).
This bug is now being tracked here.
