Precisely, I was about to make a bug report about unable to drag and drop due to kwin behavior.

kwin *should NOT* switch/shift/transfer the focus, when user "clicks and holds" the LMB or RMB mouse buttons on:

1. file
2. folder
3. selection (text)
4. selection (files/folders)

it is like : "On click, wait till mouse button is released" before switching the focus of windows. without this the whole concept of drag and drop fails, due to current kwin behavior of switching focus as soon as mouse button is pressed (clicked) on a file. kwin should wait for release of mouse button to decide whether or not to switch the focus.

other than the above mentioned, kwin should switch focus. thanks in advance.
