Bug Description

If you middle-click on the grip between the input box and the message pane in the conversation window, the window closes. Note I don't mean that gaim crashes - gaim is fine, just that conversation window closes, as if you hit the X button on the window decoration.

The reason I noticed this is that I tried to paste something by middle-clicking in the input box, but hit the gripper instead, closing the window. Annoying.

Thanks for reporting this issue. Middle clicking on the tabs close the tabs, which is compatible with Firefox behavior. But middle clicks on the pane handles should not close the tab.

This may be put as a wishlist.
