Mouse movement when switching between 3D-view and any menu/list (Linux only?)

Sep 14, 2004 Agonizer link
If you're flying around and swtich to i.e. the navigation menu, then if you switch back to 3D the ship's view 'jumps'. This depends on the movement of the mouse made in the navigation menu. Same for the 'userlist'. If you fly through an asteroid belt seeking for a special bot/player, pressing 'u' for the list and selecting a target from the list will make the view-direction 'jump' to another direction. This is very annoying to me. Would it be possible to save the mouse position when entering a menu/list, and restore the mouse position on exit?

Hope it's clear what i want to say :)

This was posted about two months ago. I think if you just move the mouse to the center of the screen before exitting the menu, it doesn't happen...

I just looked at the code and noticed that I had half-fixed this a long time ago, but apparently either forgot to finish fixing it, or the fix caused some other problem.. But in any case, I fixed it now for the next version and it seems to work fine so far.
