Subject: 24.4;
 Mouse-click in different frame displaying same buffer breaks region
Date: Sun, 09 Nov 2014 11:26:50 +0100

Starting point
===============

A buffer is displayed in two frames, a region was
selected with the mouse in one of the frames.

The problem
=============

If one clicks (mouse-1) into the other frame, the region is silently
extended to that point — although it isn't highlighted anymore.
A subsequent mouse-yank-primary inserts the broken region.

I originally noticed this problem when I used mouse-yank-primary to
yank a region into a different frame (without fist using mouse-1 to
select that frame).

For mouse-yank-primary, it can be solved by moving 

    (or mouse-yank-at-point (mouse-set-point click))

into the `let' for `primary'. I have no idea how to solve it for
mouse-1 events. 

Emacs versions effected
=========================

I originally noticed the problem in Emacs 24.1.
It's still there in 24.4.

The problem occurs, when starting from `emacs -Q'.
