I know this bug is "fixed", but I at least wanted to provide a reason to keep the mousewheel-DOWN = increase text size:

- Pulling the mousewheel DOWN is like PULLING the page toward you.

- Pushing the mousewheel UP is like PUSHING the page away from you.

Think of how a fishing reel or a pulley works.

Also, when I "pull" on the mousewhell, it (subtly) brings my body (eyes) closer to the screen. It's the third Law of Physics: Every Action has an Equal and Opposite Reaction.

Please either:
1. reverse this bug
2. make this a UI option
3. make this a hidden option (edit:config)
