I do not really agree, and feel that this would be more cleanly
supported by "context"-bindings.

But of course if we spread the dispatch out to thin, that will be a
real hassle.

What I really want is for all dispatch to be really ignorant about
mouse buttons. (and the rest of the code as well...)
