Description Harald Sitter 2017-10-17 13:56:52 UTC
- have desktop as a folder containment
- open kickoff
- have (>=3 favorites)
- try to drag the bottom most favorite over the top ones to drop it on the desktop

what happens:
- favorite gets reordered and is now the top most favorite
- this does not change when concluding the drag by dropping the icon on the desktop

what should happen:
- favorites should not get messed up by a dragndrop operation with which the user targets a drop to the desktop. when the cursor leaves the kickoff popup it should snap the favorite back to where it was and not conclude the drop operation (seeing as it doesn't get a drop in the popup at all)

I once wanted to implement exactly that but it turned out more difficult than I thought.

Still an issue with the new Kickoff.
