Bug description:
In some window managers (I believe KWin is one of them) the user is
able to initiate a drag-and-drop operation, then press alt-tab to
raise a window that will be the drop target, and only then release the
mouse button so that the drag-and-drop is performed. This is not
possible with Metacity, Beryl, Compiz or Xfwm. It is unclear to me
whether this is a limitation of the window manager or some other part
of the system.
