[Lazarus] Lazarus on gtk2 double double-click (and SourceEditor select-word failure)

[C Western]

I am fairly sure that I am not moving the mouse with the double click - 
the cursor doesn't move, and I would expect double click to work some of 
the time if this was the issue. You are right about it being related to 
mouse movement - if I move the working mouse too much duing the double 
click it gives the partial word selection. (Note that I am comparing two 
mice, one of them from Wacom. A pen is indeed very difficult to double 
click with.)
