Plugin events (ideal)

This is how plugin events should work ideally.

Plugin events (reality)

Flash requires the window that we pass to be the active window. So, an extremely ugly patch to please flash.

Pass activeWindow() to make Flash process mouse move events

I did not add a plugin quirk (PluginQuirkRequiresActiveWindowForInputEvents) because there is a bug in the Mac port - PluginPackage::determineQuirks is never called. Also, the plugin quirk seems to complicate the code a bit. So, what about leaving it out for now?

r=me, but a quirk would be nice to have in the future.

Make mouse over work without using active window

Ok, I have figured out a way to make events work without using QApplication::activeWindow().
