Attached video Screencast on OS X 10.7
While trying to click on the jewels, I accidentally dragged my Firefox window twice in a short time.  After further investigation, I realized that clicks near the edges of social provider jewel buttons, also act like clicks in the titlebar and allow dragging the window.  My regular clicks were accidentally triggering the drag as well.  See the screencast of the problem on OS X.

Reproducible: Always
Matthew, what versions of Firefox does this affect? Is this in the 17.0 Beta?
I just reproduced the problem on the latest beta.
This is now even worse because the panels don't open anymore when clicking on the left and right sides of the buttons (even though the depressed state of the button is shown). The perceived clickable area doesn't match reality.

FTR, I can't repro on Windows.  While looking at bug 854497 on OSX, I noticed some differences between Windows and OSX wrt margins/padding etc of the toolbar stuff.  Also interestingly, if you install a theme and see the problem in bug 854497, the "draggable" area is the area within the "borders" that erroneously appear.  So these 2 bugs seem related...

I can still reproduce this in Firefox Nightly 23.0a1 2013-04-11 though the dragable zone is smaller. In an older Nightly I can click and drag from about 3 or 4 pixels inside the button (not sure exactly), whereas in the latest Nightly I can only do so within 1 pixel. The window should only be draggable from border +1px I think.
Shane let me know that all toolbar buttons allow dragging the window on the 1px edge so marking this verified fixed for Firefox 23.
