I agree, from the user's point of view there should be no
distinction between click dragging a slider and scroll wheeling it,
IMO, for my software at least. Every Mac ships with either a scroll
wheel mouse or scrolling track pad.
I think there is a good way to implement gestures together with mouse
wheel control: Just use the mouse pointer position to indicate a touch
of the control. In other words, when the cursor hovers over the
control, it is touched. When the cursor is outside of the screen space
occupied by the control, it's not touched. A visual change (like a
glowing lamp) could report the touch state to the user. This should be
very usable and intuitive.
