How it is right now: If you want to zoom in on a timeline, you press Alt+Scroll. If you want to move timeline left/right to go over your project, you just Scroll.
How I want it to be: Scroll to zoom in, Alt+Scroll to move left/right (reversing keys)
From my experience, zooming in is much more important than just moving left/right. I recorded myself editing and 80% of the time I would zoom in, and 20% move left/right. I say we change that and prioritize zooming in.
Alt Scroll is a relatively hard combination. You need to stretch your thumb in a way that leaves your left hand disjointed from the keyboard and then you need to readjust it after pressing Alt.
Zooming in is one the most basic element of editing and navigating timeline! If you change it, efficiency and fluidity of work will substiantially increase.
