Hmm, seems like I jumped to conclusions too soon yesterday on the fix. It seems to be (external) keyboard related:
I got the inescapable-panning-mode-problem again today (Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon) when I used a Logitech K120 keyboard. I tested two different K120's, and with both the problem occurred (tried different USB ports and reboots).
Other USB keyboards did not show the problem when I tested: Das Keyboard, Apple keyboard, HP Elitebook laptop keyboard, Filco Majestouch. The only way to reproduce was by the (unusual) steps from #12.
So in my case it works fine as long as I don't use my Logitech K120 keyboard.
