that should be the latest one Dustin
yeah, click / drag stuff needs to be worked out. It's not a matter of
VirtualMouse being able to do it, it's a matter of figuring out how to use
it with the components etc.
So, we really need some people to dig into the component source, play around
and figure out how it should all go.
I actually did dig into the component source, and the root of the problem, I
believe, is the section where the stage property is set and the FocusManager
is instantiated. Without a stage, it won't happen.
