So does anyone besides me see it as a problem that mouse-drag-region does not return when the mouse drag is complete, but instead requires yet another event of some kind (any kind) after the mouse-up to let it return? Is that not a new bug? That functionality was really what was behind my use of transient-mark-mode. If that's really now an impossibility, can anyone recommend another method to allow a region to be mouse-dragged with highlighting, and a menu popped up upon drag completion?
