Subject: 23.0.60; Flyspell: escape-ing from the menu causes a "yank" action
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 13:57:58 +0100

Hi,

When using Flyspell, I often middle-click on an incorrect word with
the mouse, get a menu, and later realize I didn't want to correct the
word with the menu.

I'd expect pressing the ESC key to close the menu, and cancel the
action. It actually closes the menu, but releasing the button still
triggers a yank (as does a middle-click without flyspell).

Not very serious since moving the mouse outside the menu and releasing
the button works, but ...

Thanks,

I've checked in a fix.  Thanks for the bug report.
