Yes, that's correct. But the relationship between the hardware axis and scroll
valuator is defined by the driver, that's all I wanted to say.
A scroll valuator unit as proposed by Eric (unit relative to old scroll wheel
presses) is a good idea in my opinion. In that way the value is independant of
screen resolution and font size, and toolkits can then decide how many pixels
to scroll depending on those values.
