To reproduce: Running on Ubuntu, click an editor or view tab and drag it around the workbench. Observed: - The eclipse title bar flashes while dragging. - Occasionally a window seems to appear and disappear, with its upper-left corner in the upper-left of the Eclipse window and its lower-right corner matching the lower-right corner of the current view. - Frequently the UI will stop responding to mouse events entirely during the drag and the drag operation must be stopped and restarted.

I believe this also fixed bug 434524, but I'd like to hear confirmation before closing that one.

Very nice. Finally drag and drop works again under Linux. I verified the patch in a runtime Eclipse.
I've noticed an intermittent problem. Sometimes, when dragging an editor tab to the right, there is no target feedback in the position after the rightmost tab and, in more rare cases, before the rightmost tab. It looks like the problem is more likely to be reproducible right after Eclipse startup when there is chevron on the right end of the tab raw.
Sergey, we should add that to the list of remaining D&D issues I'm tracking in bug 492861.

Created attachment 261955 [details] Project Explorer corruption Happens after dragging an editor to create a split
Just tested RC1. Drag and Drop works again, but I noticed something pretty bad: It seems to corrupt the project explorer view for me. I have attached a screenshot of what that looks like. This only happens after I drap and drop an editor to create a a split, it I don't drag and drop it's okay. I have to restart Eclipse for Project Explorer to return to normal.
Actually, this is really bad. It also happens for me now when I drag an editor from one side of the split to the other side. This is definitely a new issue in RC1, and I didn't have this before. I really hope this doesn't make it into the final release, as it would make Eclipse pretty much unusable for me. I much prefer the previous behavior, where drag and drop for split wouldn't work, but I had some keyboard shortcuts setup to do the split (via Vrapper). Then I could drag editors back and forth and it wouldn't corrupt the project explorer.
I opened a new bug report for the issue: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=494406
