Craig, it is even stranger than that :)

If you use the eraser to remove all paint, then as you say, such messages
(e.g. mouseWithin) are not fired.
If you set the imageData to empty, such messages (e.g. mouseWithin) are not
fired.

If you set the text of the image control to empty, such messages (e.g.
mouseWithin) do fire.
