Summary0000317: Counterintuitive selection behaviour in Edge editing mode
Description1. Create a brush
2. Enter Edge selection mode with E key.
3. Click on a "corner" edge with the mouse and drag it.
4. Click on a different corner edge and drag it somewhere else.

Expected behaviour: The second corner should be selected instead of the first, while the first edge should stay put.

Actual behaviour: The first edge remains selected in addition to the second, resulting in them both moving. This is contrary to normal selection behaviour which requires a modifier (usually Shift) to add to a selection.

Yes, this was a requested feature by SneaksieDave a while ago. I added an option in the registry to control this behaviour, I guess we can revert the default to what it was before.

It should be user/ui/transientComponentSelection = "1".

OK, I guess some people might want this so it is good to have an option. I only reported it because I found myself shouting at the monitor every time an edge moved unexpectedly.

In fact I did implement this option as I found myself sitting next to angua shouting at her laptop because of this behaviour. :D
