Oh, yes I investigated already and IIRC the problem is in
widget-button-click: it's bound to the down-event but is really
a binding for the up event.

IIRC I didn't manage to fully understand the problem, but my impression
that widget-button-click should be split into two parts: one part bound
to the down-event (which would mostly do the "redraw the button as
pressed") and another bound to the up-event (which performs the actual
action associated with the click).

So I think the workaround you suggest is not that bad.  It's not a full
solution, but it does go in the right direction.
