Hi Benjamin,

Many thanks for all the details you wrote about the bug, I found 
your email so interesting that I couldn't resist to copy/paste it 
on my blog[1].

Please send me an email in private with your adress; I'll be happy to
send you an original drawing. That will be my way to thank you :-)

Sure, you'll find the action (repeated three times) recorded here [2]

I tested. It's a bit hard to tell if it causes glitches or if the
behavior is normal or not. I'm not using the right-click this way.
I always use it in "hover mode". With artifact or without, the 
behavior is while the tip is pressed, the right-click quickly 
'disapear' but it is probably normal because I test on contextual
menu and clicking somewhere else makes this type of menu disapear.

I hope this will help,
Cheers,

David
