resizing objects consecutively behaves unexpectedly

[alv]

• Select an object
• note the initial cursor position for the next step, i.e. where you press down mouse button
• resize with ctrl+alt+drag
• release ctrl+alt
• (you can pan or zoom the view at this point, but don't select anything)
• depress ctrl+alt again
• mouse button down at the same point as noted above
• (drag just a bit to start resizing)
• notice the jump

Expected: you could resize the object as if starting from the size you just created

Result: object returns to previous size - or if you had the cursor somewhere else, it jumps to the size it would have become at the previous resize, had you dragged the cursor to the current cursor location.

Already in (at least) r4279, in the latest r4620 too.
