-
- Better choose just above intuitions priority, because other programs
- may _create_ input-evets to make intuition do something!
-
- And remember that the user can choose the keys for screen-dragging with
- one of the prefs programs (IControl, I think). And the structure of
- the prefs file is private and may change.
-
- So you better feed _all_ input-events if you want intuition to do
- nothing. (Remember there may be new features in every new release of
- the os.)
