The log messages were not that helpful, I know try to have a look at
the source, but I need more knowledge.

Could somebody explain me (or direct me to info) how this should work
in general? I mean even on Windows, when is something a click and
when a down/up or down/click? I know that a too slow double-click will
be two separate clicks, but I'm uncertain about the down/up events.
