Oh, didn't know that. We should probably "fix" this implementation with 
a shared page for common data between the input=5Fserver/app=5Fserver/
application.
In that case, Adi's idea to add the modifiers in the B=5FMOUSE=5FMOVED 
message wouldn't be bad. Although it wouldn't help much, since no 
current application would make use of it.

Adios...
