We could do a property if needed. But - the McV people who objected to that 
facility probably didn't realize that if you have displays with data in the 
view we also will sample the data when we do the middle mouse and show the 
sample values in that same little popup window.  So it only seems redundant - 
its actually a very nice feature.
