Steps to reproduce:

Set browser.tabs.allowTabDetach to false. Click a tab, drag and release. The tab will not open in a new window (correct) but it still displays an animation of the tab moving off to a new window.

Actual results:

Displays an animation of the tab moving off to a new window

Expected results:

No animation of the tab moving off to a new window

The visual feedback is needed for reordering tabs.

How does toggling nglayout.enable_drag_images to false change things for you?

I've had that off for years and it took me a while to realize what you might be talking about.

(On Linux, with browser.tabs.allowTabDetach=false and nglayout.enable_drag_images=false, the tab slides back and forth within the tab bar and the cursor just gains a little document icon (maybe 32px by 32px) that's easy to see as a "drag in progress" cursor akin to Windows's "busy in the background" pointer+hourglass cursor.
