F17: gedit: drag & drop freezes forever mouse pointer on drag mode

[Pedro Francisco]

I need to confirm a bug.

Open one gedit window (MUST BE FROM GNOME-SHELL, either from ALT+F2
and 'gedit' or using the gnome-shell menus).

On a command line do, for example:
$ gedit ~/.bashrc
_Another_ gedit window should open.

To allow you to resume your work afterwards, on another console, do:
$ sleep 15; killall gedit

Try to drag and drop the ".bashrc" tab to the other gedit window.

Watch your mouse pointer freeze on drag mode, disabling it
effectively; keyboard does not seem to respond as well. After ~15
seconds, when gedit windows are killed, you'll get your mouse and
keyboard back.

Can anyone confirm?
