[Launchpad Bug Tracker <787270@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a web page in Firefox
2. Click somewhere inside the web page and drag
3. Drag onto the trash icon on the bottom-right corner of the screen
4. Release the mouse button

Expected: nothing should happen
Observed: the trash opens as if you had clicked on it.

It doesn't happen always, it seems to depend on the content of the web
page, which is absurd. Anyway this should never ever happen; I'm not
sure whether the responsibility is the browser's or the window system's.

Here's a page that will trigger the issue: http://www.pebblesplay.com/

Maybe the flash plugin is involved.
