Public bug reported:

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 the be 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.

** Affects: metacity (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Summary changed:

- Add ability to initiate drag, perform Alt-Tab, then drop
+ Wish: Add ability to initiate drag, perform Alt-Tab, then drop

** Summary changed:

+ Not possible to alt-tab during a drag-and-drop operation
