Yes, it does. In a nutshell, the problem seems to be that Option- 
clicking in the left margin has two conflicting behaviors:

(1) Temporarily enable the single-click line selection behavior when  
the "Allow single-click line selection" preference is disabled.

(2) Find the next matching line or beep if nothing is found.

My proposed work-around is to enable the "Allow single-click line  
selection" preference so that single-click line selection in the left  
margin works *without* the Option key. This way Option-clicking can be  
used exclusively for the "find matching line or word" functionality.
