Left-clicking pauses Replicant redraws

[humdinger]

This is hrev40513.

Put an ActivityMonitor replicant onto the Desktop and show a graph.
Now keep the left mousebutton pressed on the Desktop. See the graph's redrawing stop until the context menu appears after a short time. Click-and-drag to create a selection-frame to halt redrawing indefinitely.

Doesn't feel right.

Welcome to Tracker's great synchronous mouse click handling!

I was just about to make a ticket about this. I've noticed that when you move windows around with a replicant on the desktop like activity monitor, that the replicant will flicker.

Replying to the ringmaster:

That's actually an entirely separate issue from the one in this ticket, though I believe a ticket already exists for it.

I can find no such ticket. Do you want to create one, ringmaster?

I only see the flickering with the ActivityMonitor replicant; Workspaces, Clock and OverlayImage don't. Maybe it's related to ActivityMonitor's general flickery drawing (which annoys me no end). Or it's some alpha blending issue...?

Somewhat related ticket #5583.

Fixed in hrev41892

Still reproducible with volume replicant and with opened about window of KeymapSwitcher.

Ouch, it's about Desktop replicants, sorry. I've confused it with #5583.
