By the way, maybe John could explain that change, because I don't
understand it completely. It seems that now two threads are used instead
of one.
After a quick look, I think I made a good decision in the past not to
touch the menu code. Yeah, the new thread polls `GetMouse()` until all
mouse buttons are released and then uninstalls the message filter. Why the
message filter can't do that itself, I don't known.
The old thread's activities are to invalidate the view directly after it
is started and once more just before it terminates. In between it polls
`fMenuBar->fTracking`. To me it doesn't sound like a thread would be
needed for that purpose either.
