Mark,
Thanks a lot. I'm still wondering how the Mouse/Key events are associated with 
the Render Tree? i.e, how thoses events are routed to every render node?
I saw there is a "Widget" class implemented for different platforms, and also 
RenderWidget. seems there is something (specific to mouse events) happening 
while building up the render tree?   

Thnaks!

WebCore doesn't register for mouse events, the WebKit layer takes care  
of passing mouse events down to WebCore when needed.  For example,  
when a button is pressed WebKit on Mac 
(<http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/WebKit/mac/WebView/WebHTMLView.mm?rev=36685#L3132

EventHandler::handleMousePressEvent 
(<http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/WebCore/page/EventHandler.cpp?rev=36685#L317

dispatch of DOM events, etc.

Hope this helps,

- Mark
