I tried looking in Customize by browsing groups. Starting at the top, I
didn't see anything about "mouse", so I tried group "convenience" - to no
avail.
It should be somewhere under the group hypermedia. (It could be in
other places too.)
After I searched my emacs-devel email and found the name
`mouse-1-follows-link', I searched Info for that, still to no avail. I tried
That name doesn't seem to exist as a variable.
The right name is mouse-1-click-follows-link.
- Shouldn't this option be described in the Emacs manual?
It is.
- Should this option perhaps be added to the Options menu?
I don't think so.
- Does it perhaps make sense to add _all_ options to the Options menu that
change commonly used behavior from the previous Emacs version?
No, it is far too much. We decide these one by one.
To adopt a uniform policy is a mistake.
