Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/30870
Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
There are some aspects of the "Drag and Drop" behavior in GNOME that are very
annoying.
Many times, when clicking on an object and moving the mouse quickly, it will
be attached to the cursor (using the not-so-appealing document icon appended to
the cursor theme), even while you are not holding the mouse button down. If
you are not holding down the mouse button, there should be no drag actions. I
often times find myself with an object attached to my cursor without any easy
solution to get it off. I see this a lot in mozilla-thunderbird, when scanning
through messages (click, move, click, move). I also see this a lot when dealing
with menu entires. As a click on an icon and move the mouse, the shortcut is
appended to my cursor even while I am not clicking the mouse.
Less importantly, instead of appending a not-so-attractive document icon to
the cursor, would it be a better solution to add a document cursor while
dragging to the cursor theme?
