The subject mostly says it all - is there a way to change the modifier used to 
allow horizontal scrolling with mousewheel?

By default it appears that Alt + mousewheel in a QScrollArea (and 
QGraphicsView, etc.) scrolls horizontally, but I have a user that wants that to 
be Shift + mouse wheel instead... Fine, I'll add some settings in my Options 
dialog to allow users to customize which key modifiers do what, but then I need 
to make it happen.

I think I can accomplish this by adding an event filter. The issue I see is 
that the existing Alt + mousewheel behaves just like I want - scroll direction 
sense is the way I want it, scroll size seems sensible for a single mouse wheel 
bump, and I don't see anywhere in the API where I can query what that scroll 
step size is to duplicate it.

Any tips/tricks? Ideally, could I just trap the users actual event, but then 
turn around and send an Alt+mousewheel event to the widget? That way I get the 
default scrolling behavior, but I'm just inserting a custom modifier layer over 
the top?
