But that's how LCL is, we can not change it, or better we should not
change it.

Hmmm, no I think you must have a good know of the widgetset and a good
know of LCL and most of us fail in the last one, the know of the LCL.
That answers that different widgetsets raises events in different
order in example.

I never had serious problems using LCL for regular programs, only in
the same troubles as when using Delphi (different problems but with
similar roots).
