Description Robert 2017-04-21 22:53:11 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
1. optionally: begin holding down alt or control
2. start dragging a link at least outside of it's own bounds-box
3. press any key (or release modifier)
4. press escape to cancel the drag

Expected:
* the dragged link should pop back in place, without further action

Actual:
* the dragged link pops back in place, but
* claws 'activates' the link in the default web browser
* ...sometimes *TWICE*.

I might guess that claws/fancy is reacting to it's own cancelled drag-and-drop event, but the behavior is a bit weird... especially the double-opening-when-trying-to-cancel effect.
