Got it.

I'm not so sure what would be a good place to do it.  For starters, I
can't find any reference to w32-scroll-lock-modifier in the manual,
and I'm not sure if that's on purpose.

To my mind, it would be enough to add it to the NEWS entry.
Alternatively, we could add a section on scroll-lock-mode to (info
"(emacs) Auto Scrolling") and document it there.  (Although I'm not
sure it makes sense given that w32-scroll-lock-modifier is not
mentioned anywhere else...)

WDYT?
