that's because there is no defined behaviour for clicking on an applet, 
really, unlike say a PushButton where the behaviour is quite well defined and 
therefore there is a signal and it does all of the 
mousePress/mouseReleaseEvent stuff for you.

this is exactly how it works with QWidget as well, of course.

Applet is a lot more like QWidget than, say, QPushButton
