Hi,
it's long after the initial report but I'm having the same issue with firefox 14.0.1. (dunno if it's a regression or if this problem wasn't fixed before, can't find a similar bugreport on launchpad)

* This is a clean install of ubuntu 12.04, fully updated with the default supplied firefox.
* I imported my bookmarks from chrome, (show all bookmarks - import - import from another browser)
* Again I use the bookmark manager to sort some bookmarks, select a whole bunch and when i drag them to a different directory the desktop freezes.
* Only way out = log in on other tty and restart desktop

I reproduced this error on my laptop which also runs ubuntu 12.04, I had no bookmarks so I created some quickly. Dragging more bookmarks decreases the time to freezen, with 1 I have to shake around for some time, grab 40 bookmarks and I'm not able to drag them a centimeter.

I'm at work atm so no time to create a crashdump, I'll try to get one and attach it over the weekend + do some experimentation.
