Sorry, I apparently was not able to make my point.  This problem is not
related to the mouse.el changes which I applied to master.  The problem
described here is more persistent and can be solved only when the mutter
people decide to fix it.  Till then, the workaround I applied to the
release branch can be used but is only imperfect in the way described by
the entry above.
