Hi Jeff,

there's no feature request necessary for this. You just have to bind 
mousewheel events to the appropriate Select commands:
1. Open Preferences/Input Controllers/Main Mouse Wheel
2. Click on the button 'Configure the selected controller' in the lower 
middle of the dialog.
3. Double click the event you want to bind, for instance Scroll Up 
(Shift). The dialog 'Select Action for Event ..' will pop up.
4. In the Action column click on Select and the desired command (in your 
case select-grow, select-shrink, select-feather)
5. Confirm all open dialogs.
The changes apply immediately.

Kind regards,

Sven
