Event taps allow you to intercept, block, and manipulate events before
(active filter) and after (passive filter) they're handled by the
window server. My limited experience with them suggests that, yes, you
can block and manipulate certain mouse events.

Hmm, not sure what this means. I suggest you create a test app that's
notified whenever any event occurs (printing the event information),
and decide for yourself whether event taps offer the functionality and
granularity you need.
