Pause() should not be deprecated for Actions API JAVA

[lukeis]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 7424

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I am doing a select on a div which is triggering a javascript event. For this, I
created an Actions chain: clickAndHold().pause(500).moveToOffset(x,y)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Without using the pause() method, the action on the page is actually a "swype", for
which there is a separate event. The only way to mimic human behavior is to have the
pause() method in the chain. If this method is removed in the future Selenium WebDriver
version, there's nothing in place.

Selenium version: 2.41.0
OS: Windows
Browser: Firefox, Chrome

See https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=7646 for a proposed alternative.
