I want to increase brush size with SHIFT + Scroll Wheel

The default is that SHIFT + Scroll Wheel will move horizontally.

I want to change it so that SHIFT + Scroll Wheel will increase brush size when I SHIFT + scroll up and decrese brush size when I SHIFT + scroll down.

I spend a lot of time using Brush type tools in the GIMP. When I discovered that brushes can be resized "on the fly" via mouse + keyboard commands, my workflow changed radically - more speed, more precision, less stress. Changing brush hardness the same way completes the picture of a happier me.

A GIMP VBR variable brush scales with "perfect" resolution and has adjustable hardness because it is a vector, not a bitmap. The VBR brushes available in the basic set included with the GIMP did not suit me, so I made a few of my own: A circle, four ellipses with different orientations, a square and a diamond. Making them with the GIMP brush editor is trivially easy, but here they are for e-z download and installation.
