A known bug it iD is that it selects the relation if nothing else is found, so 
you can easily highlight something without actually seeing it. They would have 
to delete as well, but if they had something selected and hovered over the 
delete it is all to easy to remove something without knowing!

This was a reason we objected to iD being made default - it's not ready yet :(
