With some larger sims, the area is bigger than the the size of the monitor in both directions

To have a feature where either the status of the scroll lock reverses the scroll direction as set in the F3 (options)>Control>Mouse wheel scrolls left/right, such that is behaves as described in the 2-way table in the below image


OR

To have it such the Page up / Page down keys will scroll vertically at a speed greater than the arrow keys

Are you aware you can hold Shift while using the scroll wheel to scroll at the same speed as horizontal, but in the vertical direction instead?

Well, that makes my feature request completely null and void, some clever soul thought of it before me!

It's a convention in basically any scrollable program! Although it should be noted the default direction is swapped in SimSig - which can sometimes be quite confusing if rapidly switching between two scrolling applications.
