Confirmed, gnome-control-center is where such a setting would live. So I
am reopening that task at least to avoid people logging duplicate bugs.
However, keep in mind that mouse wheel ticks are emitted as button click
events which have no "size" that can be controlled from a central
location. This means each toolkit needs to implement the setting
separately. If it was implemented for GTK-3 then that's no guarantee
that the setting would be honoured in Chrome or Firefox because they
have their own separate toolkits.

Bug description:
This has been driving me nuts for a while now. The scroll wheel on my
desktop mouse (it's an MS wireless optical mouse model 1008) scrolls
rather fast. Instead of moving a few lines, it scrolls half a page or
more with a very gentle scroll. The bluetooth mouse I use with my
laptop does not do this so it's probably somewhat hardware specific.
However, I'm wondering if there is a way to modify the speed or
sensitivity. I found an answer here from about a year ago
(https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/1339) that suggests
there isn't a way but I'm wondering if anything has changed since
then. I've also skimmed through synaptic but didn't see anything
promising (like gsynaptic for touchpads).
Thanks.
