Toying a bit with MMB behavior:

MMB click with no constraint selects a constraint right away (the axis selector doesn't flash on screen)
MMB click with a constraint removes the constraint
MMB click-drag in both case (with and without a constraint) uses the axis selector.

stopConstraint didn't remove the CON_SELECT flag, so cancelling transform while selecting a constraint and then reentering transform was funny. Fixed
