Description Jason San Jose 2012-03-13 15:02:11 PDT

Steps to reproduce:
0. Requires a Mac with OSX 10.7 Lion for smooth trackpad scrolling (via laptop trackpad or external mouse/trackpad)
1. Download project from github (https://github.com/njx/mousewheel-test) or see attached zip
2. Open mousewheel-test.html
3. Follow instructions to perform a medium to large scroll
4. Observe output graph

The graph shows wheelDeltaY values for the duration of the "mousewheel". The attached sample graph shows large anomalies during acceleration and jittering towards the end of deceleration.
