Actually you must never use Mouse events directly unless you know what you do, 
because then you cannot handle the keyboard events that are associated with.

For example, if you open a popup menu inside a mouse event, that is actually a 
bug. The menu won't open if you press the "Menu" keyboard button. You must use 
the "Menu" event instead.

In the same way, control that must answer to a double-click have an "Activate"
event that you must use instead of "DblClick".
