Title:
  chromium/chrome dragging tab on touchscreen never drops

Status in Chromium Browser:
  New
Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is on unity/ubuntu 13.10
  Working on thinkpad t440s with touchscreen
  Using both Chromium and Google-chrome

  When I pick up a browsertab using the touchscreen, it can never let
  go. It doesn't matter if I go to another mouse device or any button I
  press, and I can't get back control over the system. Not with alt-tab
  or any other key combination will allow me to continue working, I can
  just keep dragging the browsertab around.

  Only way to stop it is Ctrl-Alt-f1 and kill the browser from outside
  of unity.

  I think it should be considered unity bug or touchscreen bug because
  this behaviour could be in any piece of software.
