Well, a good idea. The (dreaded :) Motif also has those two modes and
switches them automagically. If you click and release mouse button
on a menu, it is driven by explicit clicks, and if you click and 
drag mouse, submenus pop up on pointer rollover. (But still it
hasn't timeots in the latter case :). So that automagical behavior
is not new.
