    However, since a tool-bar item is just a graphic (not a specific name, like
    a menu item), why not treat tool-bar items more like we treat portions of
    the mode-line: why not recognize different mouse button events on tool-bar
    items? Why not, say, be able to have mouse-3 on a given tool-bar button do
    something different from mouse-1 on the same item?

It might be an interesting idea, but right now we want to focus
on getting bugs fixed for a new release--not on ideas for new
features.

Can you help with debugging any problems?
