if signing in to Google Docs fails, the sign-in dialog displays an error message. however, the error message text cannot be selected. thus, copying the message somewhere else (such as a bug report) requires manual copying, which is awkward and error-prone. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. navigate to "File --> Google Online Document...". 2. produce an error in the sign-in process. for example, enter incorrect Google account credentials. 3. attempt to select the error message text. Actual Results: the drag operation moves the sign-in dialog. Expected Results: the drag operation selects the error message text.
