I think the gtk notebook's just don't scroll on wheel, that's just the way they are by default.

It's probably likely that listening to "scroll-event", maybe like GtkInstanceSpinButton does, to implement a signalScroll that changes page would work.

Gtk3 has an efficient paging mechanism on the other hand and gen/qt/win/mac/* don't show an overflow indicator. But anyway, this has been reported in bug 165989.

and I'll mention here as well, that I believe we should have both mousewheel scrolling and an overflow indicator, rather than just one of the two.
