The problem here is that it’s not select that you activate over mask control points, but slide operator, which is expected to be activated with 'action' mouse (i.e. left mouse in default config). That allows to quickly grab & drag control points of masks I guess.

Anyway, do not see any bug here, this is working as intended, let’s let @Sergey have final word though. :)

This behaviour is not consistent with the rest of blender though. Have a look at modelling, if you want to tweak a vertex you right click drag if you want to quickly grab and drag a point, and the left click confirm. left click is consistent with setting the 2d cursor.

Having this grab drag left click override setting the 2d cursor breaks the consistency of how every other editor works in blender.

Similar behavior you see in node editor, mask editor and clip editor.

This is how it worked for ages and how it was intended to work. I'd rather not to change it now and leave it for until configurable work-flow keymaps project is handled.

Thanks for the report anyway.
