I don't know enough about the widget library to have an opinion on
changing it.  Come to think of it, does mouse-1 on custom widgets work
with mouse-sel-mode in Emacs 21?  I suspect that it doesn't, but I can't
check right now.  If it's never worked, then maybe it's not so important
to fix it for the release.

The patch I posted does at least adapt mouse-sel-mode to
mouse-1-click-follows-link, so Info and Help buffers will work.  If
someone could review it and check it in, that would be great.
