Hi
	I made a change set with Andreas' tweak to SystemWindow>>mouseDown:. I made
it for myself but here it is if someone is interested. (I hope you don't
mind Andreas)

from the preamble:

Change Set:		passWindowActivationClick
Date:			26 November 2003
Author:		Hernan Pablo Tylim

This change set is Andreas' quick tweak to SystemWindow>>mouseDown: to make
windows activation click be forwarded to its submorphs.

See Andreas mail here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/73813.

For your convenience a preference #passWindowActivationClick has been added,
and additionaly, pressing shift while clicking on a pasive window will also
stop the click to be forwarded to the submorphs when the preference is
enabled.

Regards,
Hernan
