Likely enough that it happens to me 2-4 times a week in one program or another. I miss my click either because I aimed wrong or I nudged the mouse while pressing the mouse button. Maybe its old age in general or an early early sign in Parkinson's. Either way, it happens and it is a concern when the UI leaves no visual confirmation.

The only advantage to the current UI is that it is the way the plugin is currently coded and effort would be necessary to change it. I fully understand reluctance to make a change. I spent a long time in the software business designing functionality & then related UI, resolving user issues with existing functionality & UI, and designing the quality assurance systems to verify that code works as designed.
