Re: when to bind *down-mouse* vs *mouse*?

    To take the specific example I gave, why is `mouse-set-font' bound to
    S-down-mouse-1 instead of being bound to S-mouse-1?

Because it pops up a menu.  It is traditional for menus to appear
when you push the mouse button, so that you can select by releasing
the button.
