           | Thanks for this feedback. I just tried with a trackpad, and
           | was surprised to see pinch gestures were triggering "wheel"
           | (i.e. mouse wheel) events. This wasn't intended behavior, and
           | should now be fixed. I'll have a think on how native gestures
           | like these could be handled better.
