I see many, many programs, both commercial and PD, that open windows, don't
use menus, and also don't use RMBTRAP. This results in the screen being locked
whenever the right mouse button is pressed while that window is active, and
the screen's top line being obscured.

If you write a windowing program with no menus, please use RMBTRAP and just
ignore the MENUUP / MENUDOWN messages.

Is there a good reason why the CLI window doesn't do this?
