[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#652999: xfce4-terminal: please add a way to disable (redefine?) middle click running mailto:

[Adam Borowski]

Package: xfce4-terminal
Version: 0.4.8-1+b1
Severity: wishlist


Unlike left and right mouse buttons, the middle one doesn't care about where
the mouse is pointing.  With one exception: if the mouse happens to be on
something that looks like an email address, in which case xfce-terminal will
start some useless mail program.  This is infuriating, for example, when
picking commits off a "git log", etc.

Even if this functionality actually did something useful (instead of
replicating double-click + switch + "compose mail" + middle click), it is
redundant with the very first menu entry upon right-clicking the address.

It'd be great if there was a way to disable this misfeature.
