I'm not sure if "changing the buffer" means "modifying the buffer"
instead of "changing to another buffer".

That would be interesting.

What kind of variables do you mean? IIUC the behavior is not really
depending on options. It's an implicit thing: commands set the variable
`deactivate-mark', and the command loop checks this variable at the end
of the execution of any command, and when it's non-nil it deactivates
the mark.

This is done explicitly in `mouse-drag-track'. Dunno if it's
intentional in this case.
