--- Comment #3 from Albert Freeman <albertwdfreeman at gmail.com> ---
The mesa developers are well aware of this and see it all the time in a myriad
of different environments. It isn't only a problem in mesa, but also in other
parts of the linux graphics stack (e.g. X). Not many people consider it a issue
that needs an immediate fix. For several decades this kind of thing has been
easy to archive and hasen't caused many issues. Nevertheless it is still an
issue and will likely be fixed when other things have been accomplished.

But likely the issue will be present in X for eternity. I am not sure if
Wayland has a similar flaw. If Wayland does, then it will almost certainly be
fixed. Gimp for example depends on the flaw in X to select a color on its
canvas in another window.
