If the enhancement done via SWT Bug 542777 is good enough, then we can also consider to have the mouse navigation behavior default enable, as we see in various Browsers(Mozilla/Chrome etc..)

Fast forward 3 years... Any plans to make middle button scrolling available to general public any time soon?
