Have package gconf-editor installed (it's probably not by default).
applications > system tools > configuration editor
apps > metacity > global_keybindings

The settings are for Metacity, not Compiz. I tried and failed to find the equivalent Compiz ones in apps > compiz. I use both myself, but I only customized keybindings for gnome-terminal and use the defaults for the window manager.

No idea on how to get mouse events into keybindings, sorry.

cheers.
annoyingly, i have now got it to toggle shade with the mouse wheel in compiz, but can only get the Alt+1/2/3/4 to swap desktops on metacity
