Most likely, yes.

I'm not sure why, or what it would say. `read-key` is a reasonably good
replacement for `read-event`, but it's still pretty brittle.
The better solution is to not "read" anything and let the main loop do
it for you (which is why I changed mouse-drag-track to use
set-transient-map instead of mucking with `read-event` or `read-key`).
In my experience, most uses of `read-event` are (latent) bugs, so maybe
it's in read-event's docstring that we should say something.
