 Actually, I know how to workaround this: use the MouseDefaults control
 instead of the Navigation control. I even know why it happens. It still
 needs a ticket.

 You can obtain the correct behavior by changing:
 {{{

 var map = new OpenLayers.Map('map');

 to:

 var map = new OpenLayers.Map('map', {controls:[
   new OpenLayers.Control.MouseDefaults(),
   new OpenLayers.Control.ArgParser(),
   new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoom()
   ]}
 );

 }}}
