 Such an "apart mode" should not be possible IMO. What would be the use for
 it? It only confuses the user.

 Could GUI take care of that so that both use ways would work the same?

 And still, even with the "standard use mode", if one moves mouse cursor
 right after selecting a vertex, there is a high likelihood the vertex and
 cursor become apart. This defect will bring troubles to folks with a fast
 hand. Digitizers in commercial setups will not be attracted to GRASS for
 that.
