Symbol always centered during panning

[Bernhard Stegmaier]

In eeschema select a symbol via component chooser to be placed on a schematic.
Symbol now "follows" mouse cursor so that it can be placed.
When panning (via touchpad) the symbol jumps away from mouse cursor to middle of eeschema window - mouse cursor is still at the same (screen) position.
On next mouse move after panning the symbol jumps back to mouse cursor.

Expected:
Symbol stays with the mouse cursor during panning, i.e., it doesn't move at all.

This is somewhat disorienting, but I don't see it getting fixed before the arrival of the GAL canvas for eeschema.

[Bernhard Stegmaier (stegmaier)]

I think (but I am not really sure), that I didn't see this behavior some (long) while ago.

Anyway... instead of "Won't Fix", shouldn't we tag such things as something like "Recheck with GAL"?

I've been closing them and then putting links for re-checking here:

Actually, I see now that I marked all the others as duplicates of that bug, so I'll do that here too.
