After searching around, I realized that Sun *wants* the functionality
to be this way (even though this is not what happens using the Windows
look and feel).  So, I have to implement it myself.  I basically have
it, but I'm having trouble with tree selection when SHIFT and CONTROL
are held down.  How do I determine everything that is selected?  Or,
should I not worry about SHIFT and CONTROL for right clicking?  Any
advice?
