I can verify what Sebastien has written. I made the change to synaptics
to default to locked tap-and-drag. It was a requested feature by people
with clickpad devices because it was very difficult to click and drag
before.
I am monitoring feedback from users about this and other changes. If
many people find it to be a problem, we can consider reverting it. I'm
merely trying to weigh the benefits and advantages.
I hope to merge better clickpad support late this week or early next
through a feature freeze exception. If that lands, we can probably
revert this change as clickpad users will have a more natural option for
clicking and dragging beyond the size of the trackpad.
