You didn't read to the end before you answered: what I said is the view of the
Framework module. If the floating windows disappear then because VCL fools us
about what's going on (or the Framework module fools itself here, I don't know).
So I described what is implemented (or what we thought is :-)), you desribed
what obviously happened (and then this is a bug even in the current concept).

I wouldn't go *so* far, but I agree for simple features like this one. Exactly
that's the reason why we changed it for 2.0, though the basic idea of the CTRL
key wasn't bad: 
a lot of people accidently undocked toolbars because they moved the mouse while
clicking on it. The duty to press CTRL for docking solved that very easily. So
IMHO using CTRL-Move for docking might be not very intuitive, but it's also not
really wrong.

Yes, while both CTRL-Double-Click and "CTRL Mouse move" are really not very
intuitive the first one is also unnecessary (and thus wrong). But that's OOo1.x.

I know this only in case of loading something in the background (where Ooo
doesn't stay there but comes to front after loading finished). We already have
an issue for this, but fixing this on all platforms without introducing new bugs
was a real nightmare and so we didn't finish that for 2.0.
I never saw this under different circumstances, but if you faced this problem
again you could try to think what currently happened in the OOo process and
report to us, maybe we can find the root cause. 
I agree that this behavior is unfortunate and shouldn't happen. But of course we
need to be able to reproduce it before we can fix it. ;-)
