'mousewheel' was later dropped based on feedback from implementers
(Mozilla, Microsoft), who expressed a reluctance to implement
'mousewheel', and a lack of useful interoperability and concern that any
change to improve interop would likely break a number of sites.
However, the group may wish to consider adding it again, see:

Are you saying Internet Explorer no longer supports the mousewheel event?
The reason Opera / Chrome / Safari support the event is because Internet
Explorer has it too and is needed for compatibility. Mozilla indeed does
not have it, but they have DOMMouseScroll or some such.
