Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Whenever you'd set "Always group windows" or "Group windows when space
is limited" in gnome-panel's window list applet preferences, and try to
drag and drop something onto a tab of say two grouped evolution windows,
it wouldn't allow you to choose, which window to drop on to, even if
you'd "hold" the dragged item over the tab for some time.

This seems more like a feature request, so I guess it is upstream - but
since I use ubuntu, you guys would probably know best what to do with
it. Maybe even make a ubuntu patch for it? I'm pretty sure KDE has this
functionality, but ever since most distros moved to KDE4, I lost the
love for it and am stuck with the next best thing - gnome. So while I'm
at it, might just as well suggest improvements :-)
