[confirmed] Telekenetic Pick

When mining, I'm often able to move my avatar away from the rock my pick is swinging at. Sometimes it's as little as 10 pixels, sometimes it's 600+ pixels.

I have screen shots if needed.

Here's how I recreate it:

1. Find a rock.
2. Click it.
3. Hover over the "mine" button
4. As you click "mine", also jump, or move right or left.

Sometimes you can get pretty far.

Once you've done this, you can't move until the mining operation is complete.

Environment Details:
OS X 10.6.2
Flash 10,1,53,64
Firefox 3.6.8

• This seems to be with numerous actions. Moving as you click seems to break the rules.

• I especially like how my pick operates itself, sometimes. It's like I have a little genie doing it for me, while I gaze off into nearby space.
  
  Actually wouldn't that be cool? Like a super-advanced mining skill: a little mining genie appears and swings a second mini-pick to increase your haul.

• I noticed that happening, but I thought it looked interesting and it didn't happen again. It's great you pinpointed the cause though. ^^
  
  @Lelu Remote Mining, like RHK? ^^

• I'm having a really hard time getting more than a few pixels, but I filed a bug anyway. I'm sure if you're able to do it, other people will figure it out too, even if they get it before me :) Thanks, "me" er.. you.. er.. hrm. Darnit.
