When I first started Symphony it was to my delight that it is based on Eclipse. I used to do a lot of development with Eclipse. It feels good when you see something you are very familiar with to show up in your daily life again unexpected. But, when I created a new document and found that Symphony is lacking trackpoint scrolling support, I was very disappointed. Trackpoint is a signiture feature of Thinkpads, and Thinkpad the brand is always a glory for IBM. Symphony is an IBM product. I don't see any reason why these two are not made symphonious. I'm not sure whether Eclipse platform supports extended pointer commands/events like those of the trackpoint. But as a former Java developer I'm sure there must be a way to implement it, given even Eclipse is a lot IBM. So get those two or three in symphony!
I'm not finding anywhere I can report this "problem" or suggest this enhancement. So I decided to "tell you my story". I just need to speak this out.
