It does seem a little off, doesn't it? Thanks for catching this, I
fixed it up in my local tree.
In case anyone is interested in my long winded excuse ... I replaced
my old trusty mouse this morning (one of the buttons was starting to
become decidedly un-trusty) and while switching between my Linux
system and my Windows system (employer VPN box) I learned that my new
mouse actually gets reprogrammed on-the-fly by the Windows
driver/config-software such that my middle mouse button was
non-functional when returning the Linux and hence my usual workflow of
"highlight and middle-click" was temporarily replaced with ctrl-c and
crtl-v which was awkward and resulted in some copy-n-paste snafus. I
wanted to get the patch posted to the list so I did that before
finding a solution to my mouse problems, perhaps that wasn't the best
order :)
