True.

That's why additional sentence won't be:
"This command cancels any existing secondary selection."
Instead it should be:
"This command cancels any existing secondary selection, when it
starts a new one."
This sentence is from your patch and is applied to 'M-mouse-1'
description in the manual, which runs 'mouse-start-secondary'.

OK, although I still disagree that this is an improvement, as I said
in previous message, I'm leaving this one alone.
