Not really needed. LibGGI already has good mouse events (via LibGII).
The real problem (IMHO) is that the X targets give you evPtrAbsolute
events, and there is no way for a _program_ to specify it wants relative
events. (Users can do it by pressing ALT+CTRL+m).
Marcus, is that something that could be added to the LibWMHints
(?? can't remember) extension ?
Cheers,
