Hi,

The bug is still present in webkit 1.2.0.

I've seen this on a slow machine, and the problem appears on all the system DND
(not the JS ones). If the release event is received before the drag icon (the
one that follows the cursor) is realized, then the lock happens.

If I understand the code correctly, a workaround is implemented in firefox for
this. It uses a GtkInvisible that is realized immediatly after creation, and
dnd events are tracked on this widget (nsDragService constructor in
widget/src/gtk2/nsDragService.cpp).

HTH.
