Ardour does the same thing. Except that our objects (all drawn using a
custom cairo canvas) do have enter/leave handling. Pressing delete while
the mouse pointer is inside an object deletes that object.

(*) the current release version uses gnomecanvas, but the next major
release will use our new cairo canvas; the principle remains the same
either way.
