Hi,
this is true, I was thinking the same. The dragdrop change isn't the
culprit by itself, but the tile locking isn't working as it should. It
requires the change below, which can be pulled from
git://git.stealer.net/viking.git for-upstream

Subject: [PATCH] Fix internal tile locking
g_list_find() only compares the pointer and not the filename it points
to, use g_list_find_custom() with g_strcmp0() to actually check for the
filename.
