Errr, yes, but the subject is misleading.

We (users) understand things in a different way than computer programs 
do. If we want the mouse wheel to scroll a number of lines (or a number 
of rows, or a number of pages, or a number of...) we say so in a human 
way: "Hey, I want to scroll down with the mouse wheel page by page 
instead 3 lines, how can I do it?" but that stanza has to be translated 
to make sense for Xorg and Xorg sees "speed" and not "lines".

Just different wording for naming the same thing. And while we are 
discussing about "names", the problem still remains :-)
