[mythtv] Mouse support for MythTV

Hello,
I use MythTV in my car (as well as at home) and have written quite a bit of 
mouse handler code in the lower level MythTV libraries and for MythMusic, 
MythDVD, and MythVideo.  How should I go about getting these additions added 
to the current build tree?

I started with the main dialog classes, and added to the widgets.  Then I 
went into each plugin, and added handlers to the places I needed mouse 
presses to work.  I use a touchscreen in the car, so I modified a theme to 
be more friendly to in-car use and the touchscreen.  This code has been 
working well for at least a year, and I think it is probably ready for use 
for everyone.

There are some things I would like to eventually get working Mainly:
Popup keyboard does not popup when one clicks on a text box
I've added a "back" button to most screens for navigation, need to add more
Write more handlers for MythVideo and MythDVD.

Please let me know how I should handle submitting this code.  I used the the 
SVN release earlier this year, so I think I am close to being up to date.

Thanks.
Anthony D'Alberto
