I don't get Jason's point. A place-finger-and-hold on a touchpad
merely makes the mouse cursor accessible to movements on the pad. A
tap-finger-then-place-and-hold actually sends a mouse-down event. The
mouse-up gets generated when you release your finger from the
touchpad.
This is pretty much parallel with normal mouse usage.
