Overlapping objects selection behaviour should allow for mouse movement (like 2.79)

In blender 2.8 when you select overlapping objects you can click multiple times to cycle though the objects behind the initially selected object. To do this you have to hold the mouse still.

If you move the mouse pointer, when you click to cycle the selection begins again from the closest object.

In 2.79 if you move the mouse and click again it will select the next object behind.

The 2.79 behaviour is much better for the user.

Agree, it will be useful for pen-users, because it is very hard to keep pen at 1 point.

It can be bug. Write to bug report too.

Agree. The 2.79 behaviour is more convenient.
