Is horizontal scrolling supposed to be supported in Wine? Only vertical scrolling works on my trackpad. Should I file a bug about it?

No, windows knows nothing about horizontal scrolling. It works as a hack by mouse drivers.

OK, so who is the responsible party for this support? Would it be appropriate to request this from e.g. Codeweavers?

Not strictly true - the WM_MOUSEHWHEEL message is (or should be, according to MSDN) implemented for Vista and Win 7. This is supposed to supersede the Intelliwheel hack of XP and Win2k.
But no, it doesn't work on the Mac...

You are welcome to implement that in Wine.
