[x3d-public] highlighting on isOver, freeWrl

[GPU Group]

Freewrl has a HOVER mode - on the menu bar ^ button toggle that on, then
drag LMB DOWN over something, and it will do the isOver thing, and drag it
off to un-do the isOver state.
That was done to make it compatible with touch devices. Could make it
desktop compatible again.
Q. With a touch-device, how do you do isOver?
