Screenshot showing a plasmoid in the stuck state.

SUMMARY
When I move plasmoids with the mouse, they sometimes get stuck. To 'unstick' them, I have to release the mouse and try to trigger a move action again, after which it will slide slightly and come unstuck.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Unlock desktop widgets.
2. Try to move a plasmoid by hovering on it and then dragging the bar that appears on its edge.

OBSERVED RESULT
The plasmoid sometimes gets stuck in the middle of a drag operation. It will not move further even if you continue dragging it with the mouse. In this state, it has a blue box surrounding it (see attached screenshot). To get it to come unstuck, one has to hover over it and trigger the move action again.

EXPECTED RESULT
Plasmoid should not get stuck while moving.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux distro: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version:  5.16.90
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.13.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I can reproduce this with the clock, folder view, and comic plasmoids.
