I was attempting to write a function that performed a ctrl+click so that if
the click caused a page navigation, it would be in a new window which would
leave the original window in a particular state. It was during this that I
found that when I click an element that is obscured by another object
(perhaps due to responsive design issues) I get a message indicating this
(as expected)..
@browser.element(:id, "button_login").click
Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError: unknown error: Element <button
type="submit" id="button_login" class="btn btn-orange btn-block">...
ent would receive the click: <div class="panel-heading border-light">...</
div>

However, when I perform a modified click on the same element (in this case
with :control) I get no error message.
@browser.element(:id, "button_login").click(:control)
=> nil
It seems to me that the error from the unmodified click should be present
in the modified click as the object being interacted with has not changed,
just the interaction on the object itself has.
