From Bugzilla Helper:


This is a minor annoyance.  It seems like every time I try to right-click on an
icon to bring up the right-click menu, before the menu comes up, I've moved the
mouse a little bit and instead of the wanted menu, I get either "Move Here/Copy
Here/Link Here" (I've only moved it a few pixels within the same window), or I
get the "switch to manual layout" dialog.

* REPRODUCIBLE: Sometimes

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Right-click on an icon, then twitch one's hand. :)

* ACTUAL RESULTS: 

 Either of the above results depending on how far I went and when I let go of
the button.

* EXPECTED RESULTS: 

  brought up the right-click menu.

My opinion: it might be nice if there were a minimum amount that you had to drag
an icon within the same window before Nautilus actually recognized it as a move;
even a 10-pixel radius should do it (although it seems like you could get away
with as much as a full icon position).

The spatial slop factor may not be good enough... let me work with Pavel 
on this.

This happens a lot to me too.

Batch move all 254 PR3 P5 bugs to 1.0.1.

Taking bugs previously assigned to Pavel, assigning them to myself. Will parse
them out at my leisure , but many are GnomeVFS bugs we should look at for 2.0

Move to unassigned. I'll probably want to take a crack at some of these myself,
and Seth says he is unlikely to.
