Summary	05100: Cannot accept warning screen with mouse only
Description	With a keyboard or a joystick it is possible to accept the warning screen pressing either "left" and "right" or entering "OK". There is no way to do this with a mouse. The game screen can be passed with a single click. Somebody suggested to use "left click" and "right click". But I wonder how this would work with a single button mouse (is that even a valid use case?) or a lightgun or a lightpen etc.
