yes :) actions should allow for cancellation and/or refinement of positioni=
ng,=20
which is often achieved with the mouse-up-must-be-in-the-same-hit-zone-as-t=
he-
mouse-down approach. so things like pasting should happen on mouse up, sinc=
e=20
paste is the action.=20

menus, however, are not actions themselves but present actions. so they =20
appear on mouse press to allow actions to be accomplished in one mouse=20
press/release with press->move to action->release
