Public bug reported:
1. Moving the mouse pointer into the edges of the screen, where the
Whisker-menu button resides, causes it to flicker between the
hovered/unhovered states, randomly falling into either following mouse
inactivity. The expected behavior from prior releases is that it stays
hovered (allowing the user to open it with a click).
Placing the Xfce panel at the bottom of the screen, I noticed that
moving the mouse against the bottom-edge (but keeping it away from the
left-edge) doesn't cause the issue like it does when placed at the top.
Maybe that's related to how the coordinates are computed/constrained.
2. Dragging items within the Whisker menu (e.g. to re-order the
Favorites list) doesn't work reliably. Most of the time, the picked-up
items are dropped as soon as the cursor is moved. With some care and
luck, a drag & drop can succeed, but no pattern/method is apparent.
