You would need to change the NEWT X11 implementation to receive more
than one mouse event .. or something - similar like on Android.

I haven't looked into X11 event handling regarding multiple pointer events,
i.e. multi-touch - where 2 events are not sequential but one w/ multiple
'pointers' involved -> 2 finger press/swipe/etc.

If we could 'detect' these semantics, then you could create an appropriate
MouseEvent (the multi pointer ctor one) .. and dispatch it.
