How would you like this to look?

func (b *Box) SetMouseCapture(capture func(event *tcell.EventMouse) *tcell.EventMouse) *Box

There will be probably something like this. But mouse support should be much more than that. If I click on an input field, it should receive focus and allow me to edit it. If I click on a button, it should be activated. Any primitive should receive focus when clicked on. Things like that.

It's a higher effort, which is why I haven't gotten around to implementing it yet.

It'll be nice to setup some ground work like a basic or even empty handler, so we can easily implement the function locally before there's global support for all primitives.

@markx check out @Bios-Marcel's https://github.com/Bios-Marcel/tview/ repository. Perhaps you could cherry-pick some commits into a PR 👀

Duh, now I gotta talk about this.

My mouse support isn't ~~well~~fully implemented:

It breaks terminal selection
No focus on click (you gotta add that for yourself if you want it)
Only Button and List handle clicks by default
Scrolling isn't handled

I was just trying to get something without putting in much effort, which is also why I don't PR this back into rivo/tview.
