RE: https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/532

Not wanting to run an unsupported configuration and hoping for a
workaround, I tried the suggestion in that issue and disabled display
compositing in Window Manager Tweaks.  While it did indeed seem to "fix"
the drag issue in all the affected apps I mentioned, it had the
unfortunate side effect of terrible graphic artifacts and weirdness
happening all over the place, mostly in my terminals.  It was too
unusable to continue with it disabled.  As soon as I re-enabled it, the
graphical artifact issues stopped and the drag issue resumed.

FWIW, disabling display compositing in Window Manager Tweaks does indeed
freeze the current X session as mentioned but enabling it does not.
