Remember how you'd script this yourself : by means of
a combination of
mouseDown/mouseMove/mouseUp/mouseRelease handlers --
that's four messages that may be caught independently
somewhere down the message path, sometimes in
different objects in order to minimize scripting
efforts.
I'm not sure how the engine could know for sure that
it's supposed to move the stack around, but that may
just be my puny brains ;-)
