I feel like it must be pointed out: character selections can be dragged around.
Not being able to drag an object that is anchored as character does not make
sense, and is an annoyance UX-wise.

As a bit of history wrt bug 87720, "as character" anchor being the default was
introduced for interop reasons (primarily with Word), but later was abandoned
due to this annoying bug.

Documents containing images with "as character" anchor will continue existing,
and this bug will continue being a bother regardless of what the default is.
Please keep this bug report open.
