The reason why currently it switches back to the normal mode is that the 
interaction of the mouse buttons in modes != normal created some issues (like 
no annotation popup menu), so the quicker way for me was to implement the 
current "solution".

Going back to the current situation:  what do you think would be the "better" 
ideas of the two?
I think a) would not improve the situation, modes in an application are an 
ungly beast per-se :/
While about b), should the annotation specific functions (like the popp menu) 
be activated (and thus "override" the modes actions of mouse buttons) only 
when the annotator is shown?
