I spotted two reasons:
1. The gtk-interface sometimes does not get a mouse release event, although the mouse press event was there. Perhaps a capturing problem.
2. The gtk-interface sometimes gets a double click instead of a single click. Perhaps a sharing gdkwindow problem.

So, there are at least two bugs. I have to gather more information, so I don't know when this will be fixed.

That's new. What type of artifacts and what controls?

That's probably the designer capturing bug. I will try to fix it this week.
