In Vista, using a pen with click and hold right clicking disabled, two
mouse down events are registered if the pen is down for more than a
few milliseconds. This essentially makes this mode unusable in many
many programs, which is unfortunate since having click to hold enabled
has it's own (admittedly unavoidable) issue: the mouse down event
isn't sent until the press and hold times out, or the mouse is moved
or mouse up occurs.

Is this a known bug to be fixed by Microsoft? I'm surprised this was
never fixed in beta.

The "Press and hold registers as a double click" is an option...

I don't see that option. The pen options I see are:

and when I select the press and hold:

But either way I doubt this is from an intentional option; the second worse
down event occurs within a fraction of a second after the first one (and
there's no mouse up or click event, just two mouse downs in rapid
succession).

Am I missing something? Thanks,

Ian
