Yeeeees, I'm sure it has nothing to do with it!
What you're describing is totally a different issue and I noticed it too.Camera panning stops as soon as the mouse hovers over loot.
What I have Is a different issue.When there's lots of corpses/loot around and I press the alt-key to make them visible it makes ALL text jitter and lagg when panning the camera around.The TEXT is jittery/laggy.IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAMERA STOPPING.
