After the latest update [not sure it's the cause], I cannot appear to click-and-glide a bookmark down to make a new tab appear.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Click down on a bookmark in the bookmark bar
2.Hold down the mouse and try to glide it down to the tabs bar
3.The item will not stay clicked and the function does not work
Actual Results:  
The item would be unselected and it would not open a new tab

Expected Results:  
Opened a new tab of that saved bookmark

This works fine for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.12pre) Gecko/2009061305 GranParadiso/3.0.12pre

Can you retest in safe-mode respectively with a new profile?

After that suggestion, I have tried doing the same action w/
- My profile in safemode w/ everything disabled
- A fresh profile in regular mode
- A fresh profile in safe mode

I am still having the same issue across all of those situations.

Trying this on a different computer, using Windows 7 Build 7127 and Firefox 3.0.11 appears to function correctly. This may be a mishap during an update issue, but I am not changing status for this time.

This works for me. Please update if you can reproduce in the latest nightly.
