currently in Gconf Editor under apps>metacity>global_keybindings I have for
switch_to_workspace_left <Control><Alt>Left
switch_to_workspace_right <Control><Alt>Right

I don't really know how the wheelup and down alias are for the Gconf Editor...

I replaced metacity with openbox, disabled nautilus desktop rendering (who needs icons anyway ) and it's working perfectly (and faster)

xfwm4 also has this great feature too. It can replace metacity as GNOME's window manager quite nicely.
