Script Holds While Mouse Down

This is something I just noticed and I'm curious.
I've never noticed this before. Perhaps you have.

Save this script as an application bundle …

-- application bundle "Beeper"
-- you will not see a hold if run in the ASE or Smile

on run -- you must Force Quit this script
repeat
-- tell application "Finder" to beep -- holds while mouse down in Beeper or Finder menu bar
beep -- holds while mouse down in Beeper menu bar only
delay 1
end repeat
end run

If you run this application and press the mouse down anywhere in the "Beeper" or "Finder" menu bar, the beeping stops until the mouse is released.
This does not seem to me to be a bug. Is it a feature?
Does anyone know more?
