In my case, it's a theme issue. In other controls' implementations,
like groupbox or progressbar, there's a reference to the object to be
draw passed to the drawing method in the theme, and all the drawing is
done inside the theme. But, in the case of the button, some primitives
calls are used to draw the button through the theme. In this case, a
flag could be useful to know the mouse state.
