Description CiAsA Boark 2006-08-17 17:55:13 UTC 
Version:           1.4-SVN (using KDE 3.5.2, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu18.1 dapper)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.15-26-k7

When setting the album cover in the summary tab of the "track information" dialog the user can either left click or right click on the album cover to open a popup menu to choose a new image or show the current one fullsize.

The mouse button must be released (regardless of whether it was a left or right click) before the menu shows.  For left click this is normal behavior, but right click menus traditionally are shown immediately, as the user can scroll among the choices and activate by releasing the mouse button.

It would be nice if amarok differentiated between the two for this dialog, and treated right clicks like it does elsewhere.

When clicking at the cover in the Context Tab I always get the alert that no product information are available, in some cases the amazon page of the album is opened in my webbrowser. Why must this be linked to amarok. What I find so good about amarok in comparism to many other media players (e.g. iTunes) is, that its not connected to an internet shop. Well, amarok gets the cover pictures from amazon, that could be an explination for the possibility to visit amazon from inside the application. But in my opinion, the menu entry in the right click menu is enough. Do you agree?

couldn't be reproduced, reopen if it's still a problem with 1.4.4
