When moving a tab in the tab strip, Firefox immediately shows a thumbnail of the tab next to the mouse pointer. That is pretty misleading since it indicates that the tab will be torn off. It also makes rearranging tabs feel cluttered. Instead, the thumbnail should only show up when the tab will actually be torn off (i.e. when the mouse is moved out of the tab strip area).
