gEDA-user: Confusing new 1.6 behavior

[John Doty <jpd@xxxxxxxxx>]

In previous versions, when adding a component, the component would  
start out "graphic" green, and turn to "selection" orange immediately  
when placed. Now, however, the component stays green until you move  
the cursor. This has caused me to be confused quite a few times now:  
it's hard to tell when you've successfully managed to focus on the  
window and get the component placed. This is especially troublesome  
in a MacOSX mixed GUI environment where the focus conventions are a  
tangled mess.

If I click an extra time due to this lack of feedback, I get two  
components (invisibly) atop each other. Not good.
