Not a long list, and in all cases it's very easy (I would
even in most cases say trivial) to do it the right way. A small price
to pay for shrugging off the last of the circa 1984 single-user
single-tasking design of MacOS and HyperCard.

modify it to remove this
queueing aspect (e.g., the mouseClick would return true only if you
clicked down and up any time between the start of the handler and when
you made the call, and once it returned true *all* state information
would be tossed out so it wouldn't return true again until the user
clicked again after the function returned true, even if they clicked
multiple times before the first call).
Whew.

I think it probably is, but is going to require some adjustments on
your part. If you really want to break out of the constraints imposed
by a browser-based architecture, you've also got to give up some of
the conveniences of that approach. In exchange you get co
flexibility using a high-level language, you more than make up for
this with increased productivity. Note that I'm not criticising C/C++
here: I think it's a great language and that everyone should learn it.
But even if you know it, you still will end up writing most of your
