I'm pretty certain all platforms queue up events. X certainly does.
However it is not hard for bugs or badly-written code to cause the RELEASE event to be sent the wrong place.
It probably is best for the counter (and anywhere else timeouts are repeated) to check if the mouse button is still held down. This indicator is set when the event is processed even if the event is not delivered to the right place.
Yep, I did this and it catches even the case when a modal dialog window is opened in the callback. This works sufficiently because the event state etc. (Fl::event_*) is "sticky" - I know that's your work, Bill (thanks!), just for others reading here.
