I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10 and installed some alternative desktop environments.
The behavior with the Unity and the GNOME desktops is what Romano describes.
With MATE (the Linux Mint desktop) I get the old error "The specified location is not supported".
That could mean that the error is in how the desktop environment handles the information passed to it by TB,

Title:
  drag n drop attachments is broken

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Dragging and dropping an attachment produces a draggable icon which,
  when released to the desktop, disappears. So, it looks like drag n
  drop is going to work... but it doesn't. Attachments must be saved in
  other ways (right-click and using open/save dialog box, etc.).

  Attachments should either not turn into draggable icons, or else drag
  'n' drop attachments should actually work.
