Description Andy 2016-12-06 15:45:45 UTC 
Before 3.22 (I just upgraded to Fedora 25) I could drag a Firefox Tab to the Top-Left-Edge, which would open the overview.

There I could drag my stuff onto another workspace, which would open the workspace.

There then I could drop it were I intented, into an open Firefox window.

Now touching the Top-Left-Edge while dragging something results in a weird situation:

The overview opens, but the dragging ghost disappears and the mouse pointer changes to normal. I cannot open another workspace without releasing my mouse key. So I need to do that and click.

I then can navigate workspaces. When leaving the overview the mouse pointer is a move-pointer, but I don't have a ghost anymore.

I also can't drop anything because I released the mouse key, remember? (;

Clicking will do nothing. I need to press ESC to have a working mouse again.

Maybe tomorrow I'll test with X server.
