Bug with mouse behavior and external display

I've noticed that with Parallels, whenever I click the mouse, my input is detached from the console. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour?

Wow, I just identified a bug with Parallels. With the PW window in my main iMac display, the functionality works as expected (need to hit Cntl-Option to release keyboard and mouse from the console window). When I drag the window to my second monitor (I span displays with my iMac), any mouse click within the console window will release the keyboard and mouse (rendering the mouse useless within the Guest OS).
 
I submitted a bug via the PW interface. Can someone else that is spanning their desktop confirm this bug?
 
Some additional information.

If I have have the console window "straddling" my main display and my extended desktop on my external monitor, this bug does not manifest itself. In fact, as long as the console window is touching the edge of the screen (nearest the main display) things are fine. Drag it away from the edge and the bug is back. :)

Any idea if the root cause has been identifed with this issue?
