Actually, this boils down to marking `track-mouse' obsolete in a not so
distant future.  Additionally, `mouse-drag-track' should be renamed once
more - to something like `mouse-drag-within-window' - the distinguishing
factor being that all events are interpreted relative to the window of
the starting event.  And we should provide a `mouse-drag-anywhere'
function which, among others, does not auto scroll the window of the
starting event.  Hence `mouse-drag-and-drop-region' could use the latter.
