Public bug reported:

After upgrading to 15.10, I can no longer Alt-drag Firefox and
Thunderbird windows above the top of the screen.  When I attempt to do
so, the window snaps downward along the y-axis so that the titlebar
aligns with top of screen.  Other applications such as gnome-terminal do
not seem to be affected.

I ran git-bisect on metacity, and narrowed the regression down to this
commit:
