Title:
  Dragging of tabs does not work with chrome and firefox

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I'm using Unity-2D (so metacity), up-to-date precise, 32 bit. Since a
  while (I can't tell the exact point, since I've just noticed it) I
  can't drag tabs in chrome and firefox (to re-order tabs) anymore. I am
  sure in one thing: it works in oneiric at least, since I have a
  machine running oneiric. If I try to drag a tab in firefox (version
  13, not from ubuntu but installed "manually"). The twist: I use
  firefox from another machine (running hardy) but via ssh X11
  redirection. However, chrome is running on the local machine. In
  firefox if I drag a tab, nothing happens: I can see the translucent
  image of the page and I can drag it, I can't "dock" it between the
  tabs, if I release the mouse button, the image just "jumps back". With
  chrome, again: I can see the translucent image, and I can drag it, but
  again, I can't "dock" it, if I release the mouse button it creates a
  new window instead of docking among the already existing tabs in the
  already existing window at the desired position. It seems that locally
  launched firefox 13 (from ubuntu repo!) works however. Also tab re-
  arraning eg in geany seems to be OK. Btw, composite effects are
  enabled via gconf in metacity.
