flyspell paste annoyance

[Bruce Ingalls]

I use Emacs v21.3.50.1 on w32, and I click the appropriate Mouse 2.
The popup menu of suggested corrections comes up nicely.
However, about half the time, it also pastes any copied text.

Any suggestions?

Also - here is a feature suggestion:
I know that there is a flymake.el out there.
However, anyone interested in creating a variation of flyspell, perhaps 
called flytags, which does an agrep on func-menus of all open buffers, 
as well as any TAGS files?
Perhaps a second mouse key could jump to the function definition.

I was unable to completely understand the above paragraph, but I think
you are asking for something called intellisense in "other" IDE
editors.

http://cedet.sourceforge.net/intellisense.shtml

I've been working on the next generation of this over the past couple
weeks, and an early sample was checked into CVS last week.  At the
moment, if a cursor is sitting on a partial symbol, it will pop up a
tooltip showing what it could be.  TAB is rebound to perform
completion at this time.  It does not mark all symbols that cannot be
found with the little red squiggle though.  That is an adventure for
another day.

Tooltips aren't available everywhere though so I've been trying
abstract things out so it is consistent and reliable across many
configurations.  It's a fun little project.

Perhaps the [mouse-2] binding in flyspell-mouse-map should be [down-mouse-2]?

Cedet is more ambitious than my idea, and I believe it encompasses it.

[down-mouse-2] is how it is done in flyspell version 1.7b. I'll have to 
work harder at reproducing the problem.
About all I can offer currently, is that mouse-2 should likely be 
disabled, while the popup menu is active.
