Sounds like a terrible idea to me. Working with X11-over-DSL means that
timing is rather unreliable. Same thing with heavy-swapping (as happens
when a I do `tla star-merge' :-( ).
And even if the timing could be measured accurately, I don't find the "hold
the mouse button longer" to be intuitive at all for "move point".
I think we're trying to squeeze too much info in those events. I'm quite
happy with the distinction between click and drag but I don't think we
should go further than that.

PS: David, could you explain exactly what's the problem with Kim's suggested
patch and latex-preview? What is the behavior of latex-preview in the
case of mouse-1 and in the case of mouse-2? Is mouse-face applied to
the actual text or just to the (before|after)-string?
