Can we get mouse wheel keybinding unlocked?

Right now the camera zoom is controlled by the scroll wheel on the mouse, and it is just one bind instead of two for zoom in and zoom out. I really prefer to set my camera zooms to the plus and minus keys, and use my scroll wheel for abilities that I need to use as fast as possible like movement type abilities. Is there any chance these key binds could be adjusted?

    I use it for weapon swapping. I love my Corsair products.

    I think there are some considerations behind the scenes before making this particular change. There have been ways to (arguably) abuse binding of mouse scroll wheel to functions in multiplayer games in the past.

    I also unbound my mousewheel from Camera to use arrow keys for zooming - only to find that arrow zoom IN does not work, and now can't bind mousewheel to camera again, consequently, I havn't been able to zoom in with anything for weeks. Have reported this a /bug several time ;)

    Can you give some examples? I'm not sure how a mousewheel is more game breaking than any other binding? Not saying you're wrong, i just don't understand.

    Just another bump. Super needed.
    Not just the ability to map Mousewheel up/down separately, but also binding zoom in/out to other Keybinds.

    Also please give us the ability to map "hide UI" and Technical Stats from PageUp/Down to different keys.

    I would like to bind mouse-wheel up to select and cycle nearby enemy targets. Mouse-wheel down to select and cycle friendly targets.
