I just want to say that #handlesMouseDown: is used in many places inside
the image and also in many tutorials (right now I recall the John
Maloney tutorial 'An Introduction To Morphic: The Squeak User Interface
Framework'). And that's probably the reason why many newbies (me
included) have started using those methods.

By the way, why are those methods dangerous? Because they interfer with
the #on:send:to: morphic event handling? Always calling super at the
begining of #mouseDown:, #mouseUp, #mouseEnter, ..., would help?

Thanks

Regards
Hernán
