	Well, it doesn't exist at present.  You could turn on Intuiticks when
you get the gadgetdown, and look at the mousebutton qualifiers (I believe
they are valid).  Don't forget to turn them off when done.

	Prop gadgets appear to produce gadgetups with relverify, even if the
mouse is off the gadget.  Relverify really only applies to boolean gadgets
(in terms of the verify function).  Maybe jimm will expand on this.
