Fairly straightforward. This needs to be fixed. I have mice that scroll
pages at the barest touch (and are therefore unusable without xinput
hackery) and other mice that require four or five turns of the wheel to
scroll down a paragraph (and are therefore equally as unusable).

This has been a problem in Gnome for *over a decade*.

Somebody *please* just implement it.

Is there a reason why this hasn't been implemented in gnome (e.g.
conflicts with guidelines) or did just nobody implement this? I there is
a chance to get a patch into upstream I would do some work in this
regards.

This needs implementing in libinput first if it's going to be added to
the UI.

It doesn't actually need to be a configuration option, but it's a
property of the hardware. You'll need to file a bug against systemd or
libinput at bugzilla.freedesktop.org for the angle of the scroll wheel
to be tagged properly.

See those articles for details:

Hardware support for 15 degrees v. 20 degrees is not the same thing as a
user-configurable sensitivity multiplier and/or acceleration factor.
KDE, Windows, and Mac OS all support this as an option.

Add another two years onto this being a basic, unsupported feature I
guess.

To me it seems an UI specific issue, since other desktop enviroments
(KDE as stated above) have this feature.

Also I don't think this can be considered as fixed since I don't think there is 
the "one" scroll speed that just needs to be set correctly in specific drivers.
This is the argument @steppres was making and he underlines this by stating 
examples of other operating systems. So I don't think this comment is offtopic.

Unfortunately I thought this was all to be implemented inside the
desktop environment itself for a long time.

But apparently this is really on the libinput side as @Bastien Nocera
already mentioned in comment #6 and #7. So I created an issue on the
bugtracker of libinput:
