I'd guess so, yes. Previous Potlatch behaviour was that it inserted  
the point at the mouse click. Now it inserts at the nearest point on  
the existing line to the mouse click. So any inaccuracy is probably  
from rounding.

Can't remember if I answered this one:

It's how Potlatch differentiates between "click" (to select) and  
"drag" (to move). If it's for a short period of time, and not a very  
big move, then Potlatch decides it's a click, so doesn't move the  
node. Getting this one right for everyone has never been at all easy -  
I think I've rewritten the code about 31242 times - and all feedback  
that it's too far to one extreme or the other is helpful. :)
