    Description

      Sometimes Fridgemagnets magnets get stuck into the drag mode, and crash the application.

      Steps to reproduce:
      1) Start fridgemagnets
      2) Navigate the virtual mouse cursor on top of one of the draggable tiles, e.g. the "Colorless" tile.
      3) Press select followed immediately with a directional key while still pressing on select, i.e. just like you would normally do when starting dragging the tile.
      4) Instead of dragging the tile, rapidly release both keys -> If you did this correctly, the draggable tile disappears and is replaced with a circular cursor. Repeat if this doesn't happen.
      5) Press any directional key without pressing select -> Usually the magnet is dragged along, which is incorrect, since select is not held down. Worse still, sometimes the application just crashes with KERN-EXEC 3.

      Note that this crash seems to occur only when dragging one of the larger tiles. This fact along with the unpredictability of the crash suggests this is a timing related issue.
