Description

Opening links requires multiple clicks when DisableLinkDrag is enabled.

How to Reproduce?

  1. Enable chrome://flags/#disable-link-drag and restart the browser.
  2. Try to left-click on links on various websites in order to open them.

Actual behaviour

Most of the time the first click doesn't seem to work. It often requires two or three clicks in order to actually open the intended URL.

Expected behaviour

Clicking on links should open the URL.

Relevant log output

bash
