I would not find it annoying if that were my case. However, I use the
trackpad with a laptop. I don't know whether that causes the
difference.
I also find that the Meta key has to be held down for a while (about 1
or 2 s) but it can be done after releasing the mouse button (with my
hand off the trackpad). Thus:
To reproduce:
1. Drag the mouse to select some text
2. Stop dragging by moving your hand away from the trackpad and
(after a short delay) HOLD DOWN the Meta (as in M-w) key
Thanks.
