I'm not sure what upstream means or what to do at this point. I have the latest Ubuntu 14.04 with 3.13.0-29 kernel, and there is still no drag lock option in the touchpad preferences.

There is no way to enable/disable (or adjust) drag lock in Ubuntu without going into a shell and using xinput. It would be nice to have a checkbox to enable/disable drag lock, and possibly set the lock timeout value as well, though a hardcoded value might work OK too. I have my "Synaptics Locked Drags Timeout" to 500 and it feels like a good natural delay. (the user can always tap again while locked to force unlock like on other OSs).
