feature request sticky targeting

this is an annoyance for me currently. often when i have something selected and i click

just slightly off of a button or control for that starbase/shipyard planet etc the object in question becomes de-selected.

i would like it if it stayed selected if the intent is obvious that it wasn't meant to be de-selected

an example from the map editor

if i click anywhere outside the green box's this planet becomes de-selected however it should only become de-selected if i click on an area outside the red box
