Example video of nautilus being broken

Under Wayland, nautilus is entirely unusable with just a touch screen. If you try to tap anywhere inside the file browser where there's files and folders being shown, nautilus starts a drag starting from the location of the mouse cursor to the location of the respective tap from a touchscreen on nautilus's window instead of actually registering a click.

Steps to reproduce:
- Get any device with a touchscreen
- Open nautilus
- Try to select a single file with the touch screen

Reproduced on: latest F25, every touchscreen laptop I've tried it on

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
