Bug Description
Dragging and dropping text and images between different windows doesn't work. Dragging something to the launcher icon of an open window shows the window preview but nothing can be dropped. Dragging something and pressing Alt + Tab focuses on the launcher and doesn't allow switching windows.
Drag-and-drop functionality would be sorely missed as it's a quick workaround to manually copying and pasting data. Please consider this a papercut bug as well.
EDIT
Let me clarify and say that drag and drop does work, but not from MAXIMISED windows.
