If I remember correctly, my Yaesu FT-1000MP did this.
The faster you turned the VFO knob the higher the incremental change in the VFO frequency.

Consider one of the settings for your computer mouse is shifting resolution. This allows you to move the mouse real fast to get from one end of three monitors to the other. And then, when you slow down, the mouse goes into micro-resolution mode and you can be very precise in your movements. This may be a Logitech feature.

I was thinking the same concept could be used for the VFO. I'm familiar with the Fine/Course and RATE buttons but I was thinking (danger Will
Robinson) that it would be nice to quickly shift to the next RTTY signal and then automatically switch to the FINE selection based on how fast you turn the VFO.

Just a though.
