Heya,

Sorry this doesn't really answer the original question but thought you might be interested.
I'm neither a pilot nor an proper engineer (2nd year Aeronautical Engineering) but I believe the A320 series has gust alleviation which deflects the ailerons upwards to reduce the load on the wing structure. (Don't ask me to explain how this is achieved with regards to control systems etc though!)

Regards
Alistair Strong
