Problem:
When I enable 'Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed' in the
settings->mouse menu, I can no longer use ctrl-X/C/V in chromium. The showing
of the cursor position deselects the inputbox.
Im pretty sure I have seen this behaviour in other apps too. Not only chromium.
Except for ubuntu-like apps, they work fine.
Could it be Qt? GTK2?
Disabling the 'Show position of pointer..' function solves the issue and
ctrl-C etc works again.
Reproduce:
* turn on 'show position of pointer...'
* start chromium
* navigate to website with inputbox
* Select text
* press ctrl-c to copy text
* observe text being de-selected
Expected behaviour: Copy the selected text to clipboard
Observed behaviour: Selected text gets de-selected and does not get copied to
the clipboard.
