Have you tried holding SHIFT + mouse scrolling?

I tested it from version 8.0.3 up to 9.0.2 and it works just fine.

Bonus hint:
This feature is actually pretty standard on many programs. Even on you browser, if you zoom-in right now so that the horizontal scroll bar appears, and try to scroll while holding SHIFT, it will side scroll.
