Bug Description

When in OpenGL or Cairo canvas someone has to press "End Track" (or End key) twice to actually end a track. Is this normal for those modes? I Standard canvas a single "End track" terminates the track.

On my system with 5435 also on archlinux I don't need to press the Esc key twice, but on the other hand the context meny End Track does not seem to work at all.

The escape key works but the binded key for "End track" is the key End.

If you right click and select "End track" and the repeat it, without moving the mouse, does it work? I don't know if this is a bug.

Ohh, I pressed the Esc key earlier, why didn't anyone notice? I retract my comment in #1. Currently in 5717 I have to press the End key twice to end, and if I use the context menu without moving the mouse it will also end. This definitely looks like a bug to me.

The intended behaivour for the End key (the End track in the context menu) is intended to end the track immediately, but it does not apparently.

I believe this has to do with PNS_ROUTER::FixRoute() not knowing that it has been called from "End track" so it commits/sets the track the first time, and then the second time if there has been no movement (so no extra track to commit) it will end it.
