> I'm having trouble understanding this change. Is the call to gtk_window_translate_coordinates unnecessary? Are the coordinates correct without it. It's unusual that this would be required for GTK+ 2, but not something similar for GTK+ 3.

AFAIK, In case of GTK+2, when the text is being dragged there is another small window getting created to hold the text being dragged. And for that the Widget we received in this call has to be translated into its toplevel widget co-ordinates which is not the GTK+3 case.

Furthermore, I don't understand how this leads to an assertion failure.

The assert is thrown in this case as the endingSelection does not find it be in Range as the Position returned by dragData created from the point in convertWidgetPointToScreenPoint is not proper.
