       The "foo: (y or n)" _was_ asked (which you can see by looking at the
       *Messages* buffer), but the mouse click got apparently treated as an
       (invalid) answer to the first "foo: (y or n)" question.

   It sounds like the down-event invoked the command,
   and the up-event tried to answer the question.

I would not think so, because nothing happens as long the mouse stays
down.  The bug also appears in identical fashion if you click with
mouse-1 on "State", then move down with the down arrow key to "Foo Bar"
and then press return.

Sincerely,
