Default Scroll wheel scrolls patches, often inadvertently

I was using Kontakt as a VSTi in Reaper. I opened Kontakt in its own FX window and made pretty extensive changes to some instruments. Then I accidentally nudged my mouse's scroll wheel and POOF! My instrument patch had disappeared. When an FX window has focus, it seems the scroll wheel scrolls through Reaper's saved patches. I couldn't get back my settings. Ah well, it wasn't that good anyway.

Possible behaviour #1: ignore scrollwheel (it's pretty easy to bump!)
Possible behaviour #2: a message: 'you are about to change an unsaved patch. Do you wish to save? yes/no/cancel'

In the meantime, I've changed Kontakt to run as a seperate process. This prevents this from happening and has some other advantages.

This happens to me a lot and I consider it a problem. In some plugins you can adjust parameters with mousewheel and in some you cannot and the wheel always targets the preset selection.
