Description:


ClickMenuViews are like menuViews, but deselects automatically
after clicked on an entry.

ClickMenuViews can be used as persistent menus (i.e. non-popping); 
for example, the old launcher uses an instance of ClickMenuView.

CAVEAT:
    to support a better NextStep look, some popUpMenus should 
    become automatically a clickMenu ... (really ?)
