I'm working on some games that don't use the mouse 'correctly', and to
disable the multifinder switching I turn off mouse down events.
This was the simplest method that I've found.  I still think that
multifinder shouldn't switch if the cursor is invisible...

PS: you can tell when the mouse goes down, of course; you just don't
get an event for it.
