When using ctrl-click to close an inactive editor there is screen flicker.  
This did not occur with the previous editor management strategy.

Workbook class:
widgetSelected is notified by CTabFolder first, activating the new editor
then mouseEvent is handled, closing editor

Can request CTabFolder eat the ctrl-click mouse event, thus not sending 
selection event.  Wait and see if we keep existing ctrl-click functionality or 
if we go back to individual close boxes.

Pls retry in latest. If there are redraw problems then pls fix this defect.

Removed functionality.  Ctrl-click no longer closes editors, thus it no longer 
flickers.  See also bug 31564 when you also note that the editor dropdown is 
gone, as are any tab compression changes you may have made.
