The only idea I can think of which wouldn't ruin the entire
paradigm of gestures would be to require users to press the mouse
button (many scroll wheels are also a button), but this is an
awkward 'gesture' and thus might present problems. That, or build
a scroll wheel with touch sensitivity, and implement a custom driver.
Or hold down a modifier key whilst moving the wheel perhaps. One
looses some usability there though, especially as I already use
'alt' as a fine grained control modifier. I am presuming that
scrolling trackpads behave in the same way as scroll wheels but I
need to look into that.
At least a scrolling trackpad has the potential to detect the begin
and end of a gesture, because the trackpad directly senses when the
user is touching the surface. I have no idea whether the Apple API
passes this through to an application - shouldn't be too hard to find
out, though.
