ctrl-clicking adds a cursor #5

Ctrl-clicking on a link adds a cursor to the document. Maybe just stopping propagation would be enough to fix this?

I tried e.preventDefault(); and e.stopPropagation();. They don't seem to fix it. I picked the keyboard shortcut before I knew Atom did that. I am looking for a way to prevent it.

You might switch to alt or alt-click. There are vertical selection packages that use alt-click but I don't know how many users there are.

There are problems no matter what I do.

ctrl-click brings up the context menu (right click) on a mac, so it has to be alt there
alt-click is a shortcut for moving windows around under Linux. No application can use that.
ctrl-click conflicts with the multiple cursors thing.

It is in the preferences so you can change it.
