Description
Describe the bug
Using on touched and on released doesn't seem to operate with simple behaviour, as I would expect.
To Reproduce
Use this code for a dead-man's-handle (train driver) in the makecode simulator
Expected behaviour
I expect when I touch P0 to see a smiley to let me know the train is safe to drive, and when I release my touch on P0 it scrolls 'STOP THE TRAIN'
Desktop (please complete the following information):
Mac OSX 10.10.5 Google Chrome
Additional context
I am porting some simple scripts from Touch Develop in to makecode for one of our content partners. This was a lovely and simple example in Touch Develop, but it seems really hard to get it to work reliably in MakeCode.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the P0 touch/release example in the MakeCode simulator described in the issue, using the screenshot as the available reproduction. Compare the observed event behavior with the expected smiley-on-touch and “STOP THE TRAIN” on-release sequence; done means those transitions are reliable.
