Bug Description

As title, the drag&drop hover timeout in spread view does not work as expected because the timer is reset every single pixel motion.

To reproduce: Open two firefox windows. Drag a .html or .png file to the Firefox icon in the Launcher. As soon as the spread appears move the mouse (using the touchpad the problem is not so prominent) onto a spread window and wait about a second.

What happens: Simply nothing.

What should happens: The spread should terminate and the hovered window should be focused.

John, seems that happened by mistake, confirm and 'wontfix' being too close in the bug status menu, now change to confirmed.

I believe this bug is currently irrelevant as "Spread on hover" over the launcher is broken. @anyrock is there a bug tracking that?

Spread on hover needs to be fixed before this bug can be fixed. So re-opening this bug to make sure it is tracked, but spread on hover needs to be fixed first.
