For me, it doesn't seem to work for all images. I came across it when
reading manga on onemanga.com. Perhaps it involves javascript?

Example of how to get epiphany bugged:
open epiphany and go to: http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/471/01/
Click the picture and try to drag it somewhere. (The image will turn blue, a 
smaller copy of the image will follow the cursor, and the cursor changes to 
cursor+hand.)
Repeatedly click/drag the picture while scrolling the mouse wheel.
If this doesn't work for 3-4 tries, click on the image to go to the next page 
and try again.

When the bug triggers, several things happen.
The cursor freezes in cursor+hand mode (sometimes in cursor + plus mode), and 
mouse clicks stop registering. I can't click, right click, or scroll whell on 
anything at all.
Mouseovers still seem to half-work. Mousing over the clock on the toolbar shows 
a date tooltip, but the clock itself doesn't highlight.
Keyboard also half-works. I am unable to use alt+tab to switch to new 
applications.
I am able to hit F11 and fullscreen toggle epiphany while this is happening.
I can alt+F2 to run new applications and windows. I can use my hotkey to open 
up terminal, etc.
Opening up new applications switches focus to it. I can't switch back to any 
previously opened applications though.
To recover, I open up terminal and do $pkill epiphany
