John just told us about another annoyance that I, while adding manually my control points, see all the time. I put the text in bold, in his first paragraph below. I even tried, in vain, to immobilize the mouse -- with both hands! -- before releasing the button to create a CP, however the carefully chosen position moves and then I have to use the arrow keys to reposition it where intended. I think the movement is always to the right, maybe a little up, and it seems to be by a fixed amount.
