I've checked in the changes, can you try the thing that failed for you with an up to date Emacs?

Thanks,

I was afraid your question was going to be "WHY does Emacs get a drag'n'drop event?", because I don't know the answer (and it doesn't make much sense to
    me).

It is an interesting question, because if you didn't try to do a
drag'n'drop, the event could reflect a bug.

But you COULD have done a real drag'n'drop, and generated a legitimate
drag-and-drop event.  So the question of how to handle one still
exists.

I will install my patch if no one objects in the next few days.

I think the problem is elsewhere.

The dnd code has a flaw in it, it generates dnd-events (lisp events) for wrong ClientMessages (X events), in this case a _MOTIF_WM_MESSAGES ClientMessage.

These non-real dnd events gets filtered out in x-dnd-handle-drag-n-drop-event (x-dnd.el) so they have no impact normally. I didn't realize they could interfere in other ways. I'll rework the generation of dnd lisp events so they are generated for genuine X dnd events only.
