However, there is surely a bug. Since you press the Meta key
only before releasing mouse-1, the event is slightly different from
pressing the Meta key before pressing mouse-1: in the former
case the first event is `down-mouse-1', and in the latter the
first event is `M-down-mouse-1'. Although the outcome is the
event `M-drag-mouse-1' in both cases, `mouse-drag-secondary'
seems not to get executed and other secondary selection
relating commands, such as `mouse-yank-secondary' fails to be
executed.
