Ah, on the C64 the mouse irq is hooked into the VBL, but of course
that's not the case on other platforms, or even if you use an Amiga
mouse on the C64. And yes, what I did was write a custom VBL handler
that called the drivers (mouse, joystick, keyboard), and updated the
sprites.

Maybe what we need is some kind of irq handling API?
