Description skaylie 2006-09-11 00:29:44 UTC 
UI components for rich client apps should be able to determine which mouse
button is used for a drag and drop operation of any object (palette item, bean
tree node, etc.), so different actions could be performed upon a drop.  Perhaps
this should be part of the rules for APIs - in cases where the mouse and other
UI tools are used, all information which is available should be made available.
