Emulated Mouse buttons

I've been having a problem with the emulated mouse buttons which I've now tracked down to, I think, the handler.  

We have an application in which the user is supposed to hold the middle mouse button and scan over the window while information about what is under the pointer is displayed in a window footer.  This works fine with a real mouse but not with the emulated buttons.   This was a puzzle because for normal clicks on other elements the mapping was fine (option-click was mapped to the middle button as expected).  I finally used xev to look at the problem and found that for the emulated buttons the handler is issuing a 'release' immediately after a 'press' whether I release the button or not.  This is only the case for emulated buttons.  This is why press and hold for emulated buttons isn't working.

Is this already a known bug?

Thanks,


Scott Buchanan
