  Well, I've got the original big tarball again and have tested
several times in several ways and I'm unable to reproduce the weird
behaviour I described originally :-(

  I can confirm drag'n'drop is severely damaged, but that has already
been filed on #210235,
so I'll refrain from using it.

  I was going to downgrade severity to normal, but noticed joss has
already set it to important, but looks also like an automated email,
do you know why? (the only reason I can imagine is that tagging a RC
bug unreproducible auto-downgrades it to a non-RC level, but I wasn't
aware of that BTS procedure).

  thanks and best regards,
