What's a mouse?

M-n / M-p navigates the entries. Using a mouse is going to be
extremely inefficient.

I did some digging, and it looks like this scrolling support been a
wishlist item since 2018 with no resolution, I imagine there's no
official way to make scrolling happen any time soon. The silver lining
is if you're willing and able, you can dig into company-mode and
submit a patch to get it working the way you like.

Couldn't one add mouse scroll input to the company popup keymap to
execute the same command as M-n/M-p?

You can do anything in Emacs :)

I dabbled a bit with this, and got the scroll wheel working
_somewhat_:

It scrolls by selecting next/previous elements.
