For example, you wouldn’t want to change the cursor from an arrow to a pointing finger just because you were over a link. I don’t know what the CSS specification says about this. I am concerned that this change, despite being worded as a bug fix, could make behavior worse for some common cases.

Well, if the web page changes style during the drag process, I could imagine one design choice where the cursor changes to match the style where the drag started. Probably not to match the style where the mouse happens to be.
