Shift-clicking item while EditBox has focus doesn't add itemLink

It looks like AceGUI just uses OnMouseDown but the EditBox isn't receiving that event, since the click isn't happening on the frame itself.

Blizz's chatframe code:

There is a GLOBAL_MOUSE_DOWN event but that doesn't feel like the right way to do it.

This is how AceGUI does it:

if not AceGUIEditBoxInsertLink then
	-- upgradeable hook
	hooksecurefunc("ChatEdit_InsertLink", function(...) return _G.AceGUIEditBoxInsertLink(...) end)
end

function _G.AceGUIEditBoxInsertLink(text)
	for i = 1, AceGUI:GetWidgetCount(Type) do
		local editbox = _G["AceGUI-3.0EditBox"..i]
		if editbox and editbox:IsVisible() and editbox:HasFocus() then
			editbox:Insert(text)
			return true
		end
	end
end
