Deselecting pieces

Hi,

I play with the Piece destinations (valid moves and premoves) turned on because it helps me visualize the moves.

Unfortunately it has happened a few times that after clicking on a piece to consider candidate moves I ended up moving the piece unwillingly, while I was trying to deselect the piece (the only way to cancel the selection is to click on the piece again). In short time controls and with, say, a queen, it can be quite tricky as all squares around the queen are usually available.

It would be extremely hand to have the piece deselected also by clicking outside the board.

Thanks
Thanks for the answer. Not the best solution but I'll manage :)
