Believe these answers are valid but also just wanted to add since there was 
concern about it only being a movie clip and not a button, check out the 
inheritance chain for MovieClip here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/MovieClip.html
Shows that it extends Sprite which in turn extends DisplayObjectContainer 
which extends InteractiveObject which is where the mouse interaction/event 
dispatching happens from what I can see.

Being a button means that it has a label and it has some "states" which are 
different looks to the button background graphics when it's hovered over or 
clicked (or in the case of a toggle button depressed when selected or not). 
 Guess point being anything extending InteractiveObject should be 
dispatching interaction events, being an extension of Button isn't a 
requirement for mouse interaction.  Only thing I would be aware/wary of here 
is that I don't think the google Marker class extends any of this, it is 
just an Object and implements IEventDispatcher and IMarker on it's own 
accord (using custom events) that's the reason for the second response here.
