question on TCanvas::HandleInput

	Hello ROOT developers,

is it intentional that TCanvas::HandleInput doesn't have a default for
an X/Win event? Right now if an event is  different from a small number 
of events generated by mouse (press-left-button, move mouse, release-left-button 
etc) TCanvas::HandleInput just returns. For example it is not possible to 
process a keyboard hit... 

It might make sense (of course, if it doesn't interfere with anything) 
to have a default processing of X/Win event which would just pass this event
to the picked object ExecuteEvent method. Then it would be a selected object 
(and not a canvas itself) which decides what to do with this event.

I'd expect a lot of (potential) users would like to use this feature.


						Regards, Pasha.
