 Yes, you are right, before the first point must be false.

 But there is a problem with {{{!!this.lastUp}}} using freehand (in
 {{{down}}} and {{{move}}} methods):
  * use the example [http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/measure.html
 measure.html] selecting "use immediate measures"
  * start freehand
  * release the shift key
  * move, oops! the immediate measure does not change.
  * continue freehand
  * release the shift key
  * move, ok! now works

 It's a minor problem which I have not opened ticket. This problem and
 #3310 make me think it would be good to reintroduce "handler.drawing" (and
 it has the advantage of causing less trouble adapting to users, eg: this
 ticket)

 What is your opinion?
