I agree that this is expected behaviour. Let's use this for the "Careful" annotator mode. Assigning to @amadanmath for v1.4.
This is another feature that we previously had but changed in response to feedback. There's a one-line fix if we want to revert, see https://github.com/nlplab/brat/blob/master/client/src/annotator_ui.js#L889
When the annotator clicks 'Move' and drags to move the extent of a label, the effect is immediate - there is no confirmation dialog. This means that if the annotator has accidentally selected lots of text, or only one character, they will not get a chance to cancel the Move action. Instead, could the sequence of events be: Annotator selects label Annotator clicks 'Move' Annotator selects text *[NEW] Dialog box pops back up, so the annotator can now "ok" or "cancel" (or other actions) on the selected span
