Oops, I haven't finished my e-mail... The reason why I posted just another workaround is that I consider it "less 
workaround" than the former fix (supposing this really was the same problem) and that it helps in more situations (like 
in GTK+ drag-drop, RYX said he had problems with this). But it's really hacky, it should apply depending on whether the 
described circumstances really happen and so, but as I said, it's temporary and only for the interested. I use it in my 
local clone and I actually haven't had many reasons to make it cleaner.
