Improve the virtual scrolling mechanism to make middle clicking less
difficult. Add a -L option (yet another option, indeed!) which changes the speed of scrolling and change -U to only affect the scroll threshold. This should make middle-clicking a much more pleasant experience. PR: bin/120186 Submitted by: Aragon Gouveia <aragon -at- phat.za.net> MFC after: 3 days
