Dashboard session tools selection option

I'd like to see an option to make the Dashboard Session Tools not selectable across the whole screen. Just make them mouse selectable on the entry itself, not on the white space on the other side of the screen. Either make it an option to keep the current behavior, or just make the change.
I find I select something on the menu when I click on the window to bring it forward. Just annoying, not hugely important. :)
