The web is full with discussions about "wrong" mouse wheel behaviour. I've studied over an hour yesterday through various heated discussions, from the time when FF2 switched to FF3, and looks like everyone has his own "intuition" which should be the "right" direction, and the other direction feels "unnatural" to him. Must have to do with how our brains work, some people learn more visually and others by hearing and such, we're just differently 'wired' (or just think of different men and women brains :D). And there's still no common direction for all programs, so you may still end up confused all the time.

Actually lots of people also wrote they don't even really notice if they pull in the wrong direction, since they subconsciously switch it immediately if it shows the wrong zoom, since this happens all the time to them and they are used that nothing works right at first ;-)

In my opinion a menu switch would just be a nice little service to users, and does no harm, since Zooming has it's own short menu, not exploding any ever-growing main menus. And it only takes adding a few lines to zoom.kmm, so just - why not ;-) Such an entry may actually help some people getting aware of the mouse wheel zoom at all - would you believe I 'discovered' that gem only about a year ago?? *blush*
But I don't mean to insist, alternatively we can just as well add a little explanation in FAQ how to switch manually. Will do that anyway, for the people still using KM1.5x :)

PS: Corrected a little typo in the macro above, and also shortened menu to "Reverse MouseWheel Zoom".[/quote]
