    Description

      reactOS r74919 opens the start menu erroneously when releasing the left mouse button and not when pressing it.
      Opposite to this Windows XP & 2003 open the start-menu already on pressing the button.

      Furthermore our latest convenience fix to open the menu when clicking in the left-bottom-most pixel on the screen (CORE-13322) already properly reacts to button-press.

      We should do the same when hitting within the actual button-rect.
      StartButton.patch is not beautiful but does the job for classic & themed.

      By the way: this also should be a valid fix for CORE-13331.
