[Oberon] Erratic Mouse Behaviour in A2

[Bernhard Treutwein]

Hi Peter,

no, it was neither of the two behaviors, there were surprising effects
like moving and zooming windows on mouse clicks and rearranging the desktop.
But strangly I currently cannot reproduce the problem at all. 

The mouse works in moment as expected. I am sorry for the noise.
