mouse clicks in os-x

You should see the fun I have for RISC OS, where the convention is that 
the left mouse button click passes focus (if the app accepts it) but the 
menu & adjust buttons do not move focus. You can menu, choose options 
etc in one window without it being raised to the front and whilst typing 
goes to another window entirely. Oh and moving focus doesn't raise the 
window either.

It sounds pretty odd written down but it works amazingly well, mostly. 
It's a bit of a pain in Squeak that the left-mouse-click also opens a 
menu sometimes though.
