This implementation of this hasn't changed, so I'm wondering if you're
seeing https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=108309 which results
from a currently selected element becoming selected again right after you
hit Make Less Interesting.  The usual work-around is to hit Make Less
Interesting twice.  If that doesn't work please comment.  I've bumped the
priority of this bug to P1.

This is almost certainly multiple editors being opened active on task
activation while "Link with Editor" is pressed on the Package Explorer.  
If you could verify that the fix should be very straightforward (to
temporarily suppress Mylar's Package Explorer management while activating
the task).  New bug is: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=116449

Assuming that the former is not a regression, and the latter is requested
behavior that can be toggled off, if I'll avoid cutting a service release.
But I would appreciate your trying 0.4.2 again to verify.

Created a bug: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=116450
The work-around should be to deactivate and reactivate the task context,
which will cause the commit set to get recreated without the uninteresting
resource.  But could you specify on the report precisely what you mean by
"exclude resource from interest"?
