No, but as far as I know, the only way scroll-wheels get supported in
MacOS is using drivers provided by your mouse maker. The only ones I've
seen are USB, and (of course) MoL pretends the mouse is ADB, so the
drivers won't load (of course, you'd have to fake a device with the proper
credentials - name, ID numbers - to make it work anyway).

I know I'd like to see it work, but as convoluted as it seems it would be,
it doesn't seem likely. :/
