At least on Win7, tk.Texts scroll, by default, at an anemic 2-3 lines per wheel click, ignoring the system wheel setting. What happens on other systems?  I consider this a probable tk bug, at least on Widows, but we can override the default (on Windows) with

def mousescroll(event):
   <scroll n lines>
   return 'break'
text.bind('<MouseWheel>', mousescroll)

turtledemo.__main__ has wheel code (for font resizing) for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Unless we can access system settings, we might add a config option.
