But...
If I place for instance a ShowMessage() call in the OnClick event of
the button it DOES NOT show up!
And if I place a breakpoint there it too does not break.

So somehow this business of setting the form transparent robs it of
any mouse event too...
Even if the control clicked on is in fact not transparent.
