That's just it, I'm not sure that it does work like other Windows applications 
that don't use Qt. I just tried both Chrome and Windows Media Player and they 
do NOT exhibit that behavior. For Chrome, if I go to a website that has 
animations then do the click-and-hold sequence, the animations continue to 
play. Similarly, Windows Media Player will continue to play the movie while 
going through those steps.

I'm not sure how you would test whether it works with Notepad? I just tried it 
there, and all I can see is that the cursor stops blinking while going through 
the click-and-hold sequence. Microsoft Outlook behaves similarly. But I guess I 
can't tell if the cursor stops blinking because that application's event loop 
is blocked, or if it's because the widget with the cursor is losing focus as 
I'm clicking on one of the window control buttons.

So it seems to be a mixed bag, although it's tough to be sure what I'm testing 
since it's not like I have access to those applications' source code.
