Same issue here with Firefox 13. Drag&drop of bookmarks just stops
working from time to time. Sometimes I also have the issue that a
drag&drop action gets stuck and doesn't register a mouse release, thus I
have to kill Firefox to release the input grab. It's not a new problem,
it has been around for some years.

Title:
  drag and drop bookmark functionality broken

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  If I have the bookmarks toolbar enabled, I should be able to do the
  following three actions:

  1) Click on a bookmark in the bookmark toolbar and drag it to a new location 
in the toolbar.
  2) Click on the icon in a tab, and drag the description to the bookmark 
toolbar to create a new bookmark.
  3) Click on the icon for the current page in the location bar and drag it to 
the bookmark toolbar to create a new bookmark.

  About 50% of the times I open Firefox, none of these actions work.
  When these actions work, if I do action (1), then all of the actions stop 
working.

  This is repeatable, without fail.
  I have tested with two different users (so different profiles.)
