Demonstration of clicking and dragging the empty space

SUMMARY
Clicking and dragging any empty space in the Places panel moves the currently selected entry unexpectedly. Where the selected entry is moved seems to depend on the distance you move your mouse up or down, but it's somewhat unpredictable to me.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In Dolphin, click an entry under Places to select it.
2. With your cursor over the empty space at the bottom of the Places panel, click and start dragging.
3. Move your mouse vertically and release.

OBSERVED RESULT
While dragging (step 2), the cursor indicates it's currently dragging the selected Places entry. Upon release (step 3), it will attempt to reorder the entry that was selected.

EXPECTED RESULT
Clicking and dragging in the empty space shouldn't do anything.
