Actually, you can do better yet... You can write a program that goes looking
for windows that want input events, and "do the right thing": for large
windows, allow scribbling anywhere, for small dialog boxes, pop up a window
to scribble in. This can be done the same way that Bob Scheifler did speech
recognition control of X (the atox program).
