Hmm, sorry, no wheel mouse here, so I can't test. But shouldn't that be
  (define-gesture-name :up :pointer-button-press (:wheel-up))

Well, the wheel buttons are used in panes.lisp (for scrolling), so maybe
you could just test scrolling with the mouse wheel. Thinking of it:
maybe your application pane inherits from mouse-wheel-scroll-mixin and somehow the
scroll event gets eaten by that class' dispatch-event ...

 Cheers, RalfD

BTW, send me your newest version, I can test with scroll-wheel tomorrow.
