Chris Wood  (USA: wood.muc@sni-usa.com) asked me to send
the following query.
  #######  Multiple-Click Multiple-Action  #######

New to MOTIF and X-protocol, I see a general defect of
some GUIs. Our (SNI) experts say that the X-protocol
does not provide a solution. Can anybody help?

 If I click multiply on a "button", it is usually
actioned once for each click. This is not good.
Often the action produced by the first click changes
the window so that the second click becomes impossible,
or at least difficult to do. So it is silly to action
the second click just because it comes fast.
The user should be protected against shakey fingers,
(or perhaps he thinks double click is needed).

The widget can be programmed to avoid this, by ignoring
some clicks. But the "right" solution is surely to set
a window asynchronous in most cases.  The X-server would
not send to the widget, further interrupts generated
before the widget responds. Does a window need asynchronous
handling for type-ahead, when the keyboard is being used?
