It doesn't interfear, but there is no connection between
cutbuffers if thats what you mean.
When I get the next layer done, one could rewrite X's
mouseinterface to use this instead, but I see no actual
benefit in that, given that X has to work for it on
other platforms so the code will still be in there.
What would be nice though, was that libdialog was "mouse aware" so
you could click on buttons etc with the mouse...
