[As-users] RaiseLower different in version 2.0

Hi,
I updated my afterstep to version 2.00.01.
Unfortunately, version 2.0 seems to interpret certain commands in the
"feel" file differently.
The "feel" file is located in ~/.afterstep/feels/
and contains by default the lines:
...
Mouse 3 T A RaiseLower
...
Mouse 3 FS A Move
The first line specifies that if one clicks with the right mousebutton
on the titlebar of the windows while holding any modifier key (alt,
ctrl, shift), the function RaiseLower is executed on the window.
In the old afterstep versions, the function RaiseLower used to lower the
window (put it to the background) if it was raised and to raise it (put
it to the foreground) if it was lowered.
In version 2.0, the function lowers the window if it was raised, but, if
the window is in the background (lowered), the function raises it only
as long as the mouse button is being held. As soon as you release the
button, it goes back to the background.
The second line above specifies that if one clicks with the right
mousebutton on the window-frame or the bottom window-bar while holding
any modifier key, the function Move is executed on the window.
The function Move obviously moves the window. However, in version 2.0,
the window is also raised to the foreground at the same time. In older
versions of AS, it was possible to move the window while it was lowered
(while parts of it were behind other windows).
Does anyone know why these functionalities have changed? Is this a bug
or was it intended? I really got used to the behaviour of my old
afterstep, and I'm very annoyed with these changes.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot
Etienne
