Will scrolling have momentum too? A quick flick is so much more satisfying than laboriously grinding your way down a document. It already does in the Synaptics driver even without smooth scrolling, but it just doesn't work particularly well. Of particular note is that momentum doesn't accumulate: you can have the scroll coasting to a slow stop, but then when you put two fingers down to scroll again, the scroll momentum starts from zero, rather than starting from the velocity of the coast. Patches are, of course, welcome. :)

Another example of it working not particularly well: if you hold down Ctrl while the touchpad is still coasting (because you decided to hit Ctrl-PgUp, for example), the browser starts changing your font size.

It's even more frustrating if it's still 'coasting' after hitting the top of the page and all motion has stopped.
