Hi Hans,

FWIW, I've been running Firefox on Wayland ever since Wayland was
available on fedora.
I have not noticed anything unexpected with regard to clicking on links
from anywhere, mostly ones in Thunderbird
current setup:
uname -a: Linux rwells-x280 5.0.4-200.fc29.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 25
02:27:33 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
rpm -q firefox: firefox-66.0.1-4.fc29.x86_64
Let me know if you want me to run any experiments.
cheers,
roger
