    I'd be surprised if you could use it in but a few (like 1-2) Windows
programs since it is not part of the CUA and the only place I've ever seen
that behavior is in OS/2.  Generally when you have something in a list context
and you click and hold the left mouse button Windows standard behavior is to
take the highlighted item(s) and move them.  In OS/2 this was performed with
the RMB, not the LMB, therefore the LMB could be held for a mouse swipe.
Since this is standard behavior for Windows list controls and over 99% of
windows programs use those standard controls they inherit that behavior.
