I think it probably is a bug - my initial guess was that the
button_press handler for some widget returned the wrong value (FALSE
instead of TRUE), but now I think it may be the stacking order of the
input-only windows used to trap events. Probably the input-only
windows should have the same stacking as the widgets themselves. 

I could be wrong though.
