Overview

Mouse event propagation through the component tree. The input system already parses SGR mouse sequences into mouse-event structs. This module adds:

1. A mouse-mixin class with event handler slots
2. Hit-testing: given (x,y), find the deepest component owning that cell
3. Event dispatch: route mouse-event → component handlers, bubble up
4. ScrollBox integration: wheel → scroll
5. Text selection: drag highlight + clipboard copy

Contract

• mouse-mixin — mixin class with :on-mouse-down/up/move/scroll slots
• handle-mouse-event component event — dispatch to the right handler
• hit-test root x y → deepest component at (x,y)
• selection — highlighted text region (start-x, start-y, end-x, end-y)
• get-selection → selected text as string
• copy-to-clipboard text → pipe to xclip/wl-copy
