Works just fine for me.  In your particular example, you may want
to add the following; as you only modified the Btn1Down translation,
the remainder of the translations will continue to be triggered.

	<Btn1Motion>: ignore() \n\
	<Btn1Up>:     ignore()

where ignore() is another application-defined action.  (The Text
documentation lists a 'do-nothing' action but it's missing from
the implementation).
