I'm not seeing the point to mouseClicked since it doesn't appear to work with touch events and I'm testing our application on a Surface Pro.  If I'm looking for single click I can use mouseReleased and for double click I can use mousePressed and get the same result?
Oddly mouseClicked will only tell you if you got a single mousePressed immediately followed by a mouseReleased in the same location, but both of those events translate to touch events while mouseClicked does not?
