 I seem to be a bit confused as to how N.AES handles clicks on the
rootwindow (desktop). Under N.AES, single left-clicks on empty desktop
areas brings Thing ontop. Right-clicks opens up Thing's popup.

 Seeing this, I made xaaes pass all clicks to Thing's event handler.
However, left-clicks now did not do anything at all. I thought Thing
topped itself. Right-clicks behaved just like under N.AES.

 I ended up checking which button was was pressed, and if right button,
just returns to Thing's event handler. If left-button, check if icons,
etc. was cliced, and if not, top Thing.

 What is the right way to handle this?
