Synopsis: in gnome panel menus, dragging through the last used menu item causes a drag-and-drop operation to start

Description:
Description of Problem:

The problem occurs when using a menu in "Mac mode", by which I mean you
click and hold the LMB, and move through the menu, releasing the button
on the menu selection you want.

If I select something like Applications->Accessories->Calulator, and
then move through that menu again, the menu-drag becomes a drag-and-drop
operation.

It doesn't matter how you select the menu item the first time, it seems
gnome remembers something about that selection, and dragging through it
in the future turns it into a drag-and-drop operation.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Select any entry in a gnome panel menu.
2. Using a click-drag method to select another menu item, drag the mouse
through the menu item chosen in #1
3. 

Actual Results:

Hitting the last selected menu item turns into a drag and drop
operation.

Expected Results:

The cursor should continue through the menus just like it does on all
other menu items.

How often does this happen?

Consistently.
