	Except in the zoom-window box and in the close box, clicking
	within the title bar should have no effect.
	-- Inside Macintosh, Volume IV, page 9

The person who wrote the above was not being very careful.  Clicking in the
title bar, outside the close and zoom areas, is supposed to setup the window
for dragging.  So it is supposed to have some effect, and the effect it
normally has is even visible.  Read the first paragraph on page I-47 in
Inside Macintosh.

It is not clear from the User Interface Guidelines that LSC is going
against the rules with its pop-up menus.  They are not activated just by
clicking in the title bar.  They are activated by clicking there with the
Option key held down.  Where in the Guidelines is that forbidden?
