To be fair, some time ago I've had the joy to try and properly
support scrolling gestures properly for my UI framework and I
wound up naming the window class of my windows
"OperaWindowClass", because that triggers a special case path
in the touchpad driver, which actually sends useful window
messages. I didn't find another way to get useful data. The
whole (Synaptics) driver is obviously nothing but a crapload of
special case junk to make the most popular applications and
controls work, because the people involved obviously don't
manage to develop a standard API for pixel perfect scrolling.
Now that was a surprise! I just could not understand why I
receive WM_MOUSEWHEEL only with 120 as Delta, but Internet
Explorer receives fine grained (ex. 24). Seting the window class
name as you said, 'solves' indeed the problem!
