Description scott+kde 2008-10-31 13:33:57 UTC 
Version:           unknown (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-7-generic

In KDE 3.x I could configure things such that scrolling the mouse wheel on an empty patch of desktop would cycle through my virtual desktops.  This feature seems to have disappeared in 4.1 - it would be great if it could be restored.

Yes, I know I can get the same effect by scrolling on the pager itself, but that is a much smaller target to hit and usually a long way away from the mouse pointer...
