This is a "feature" from enlightenment which believes that only E should
handle the clicks on the root window. The key is to delete the cached E
keybindings file (~/.enlightenment/cached/cfg/.<path to
enlightenment>.config.keybindings.cfg.preparsed) and copy the keybindings
file from <path to enlightenment>/config/keybindings to your
~/.enlightenment and edit it to reenable the mouse clicks on the desktop
to not be handled by E.
