It would be nice if the views had support for horizontal scrolling, which could be used through:
- mouse scroll wheels with tilt support
- left/right cursor keys
- horizontal scroll area/gesture on touchpads

By reacting to a horizontal scroll event in the calendar view, the view should switch to the next day/week/month, depending on the current mode.

Currently the only view which reacts in any way on horizontal events is the "Month View", but the action here is not quite straightforward, as such a event causes the currently active week in the "Date Navigator" sidebar to move up/down and only after reaching the next month, also switching the mainview.
The "Date Navigator" sidebar should only react on such events when it has mouse focus.

Having support for horizontal scroll events would also improve the usability on touch-screen interfaces dramatically, as it would make it way easier to switch between the currently active day/week/month.

Reproducible: Always
