We've established that it isn't possible to deselect without making
a new selection.
True.
So I don't think deselection is something we can describe, as it
doesn't really exist.
That's why additional sentence won't be:
"This command cancels any existing secondary selection."
Instead it should be:
"This command cancels any existing secondary selection, when it
starts a new one."
This sentence is from your patch and is applied to 'M-mouse-1'
description in the manual, which runs 'mouse-start-secondary'.
As for description of 'M-mouse-1' in Emacs Manual, (...)
Yes, the manual should generally present a coherent text, so the
addition looked like an improvement to me.
OK, although I still disagree that this is an improvement, as I said
in previous message, I'm leaving this one alone.
