Alright, so we are talking of the same thing, but disagreeing on what
factually happened in the old behavior :). I maintain that, in the old
behavior, when moving a docked appicon, pressing Alt causes it to be
detached and prevents it from redocking.

So:
1. Press and hold Alt
2. Click on the docked app and hold the click
3. Move the appicon around: no ghost tile, no docking possible
4. Release Alt (mouse button is still pressed)
5. Move the appicon around: ghost tile when close to a dock, dock
   possible
6. Press Alt again
7. Cf. 3 above

If the mouse button is released while Alt is pressed (and after the
mouse is moved a bit :-/), you are in step 3 above: no docking. If Alt
is no longer pressed, step 5, docking is possible.

This is what I observed in wmaker-0.95.1 (Jan 2013).

Do you repro the "I can move an appicon from a dock to another with Alt
pressed" behavior with that version?
