But then any mapping of mouse-4 etc. to wheel events is pure
heuristics, right? There are mice out there which have more than 3
buttons, and they can legitimately produce mouse-4 for the 4th button,
right?

If I'm right, and this mapping is based on heuristics, we cannot
hard-code it, we must allow users to control the mapping in case the
heuristics fails. Or am I missing something?
