Button (etc.) events [message #3734]

The following is an idea which occurred to me for an improvement in the
IDL widget system.

At present buttons return an event only for the left mouse button. I
would like to be able to return events from all buttons (with an
EVENT.BUTTON field to identify which button was used) so that it would be
possible (say) to have an arrangement where LEFT BUTTON = do action,
RIGHT BUTTON = display help text.

This could also be applied to list widgets (and sliders?), and must be
possible as DRAW widgets do identify the button used.

How do other users feel about this? Should we lean on RSI?
