Fedora Workstation 25 Beta...
I have found a difference between Xorg and Wayland drag and drop
behavior in Gnome Shell.
In Wayland you cannot drag the icon through the hot corner and paste
into an application in a
different workspace.
The Xorg drag and drop is intuitive. You hold the mouse button down
through the entire
operation until you reach the target and then release to drop.
The Wayland drag and drop works but it is not obvious what to do. You
must drag the object
into the hot corner. When the Overview is displayed, move cursor into
the Overview. The
icon is detached from the cursor and remains at the corner. You then
release the mouse
button and move the cursor to the workspace with the target. Press and release the mouse
button to select the target. The target will be moved from the
workspace to the body
of the Overview. Move the mouse button to the target and press and
release the mouse
button. The Overview will close and the icon appears and reconnects to
the cursor. Click
the target and the object will be dropped.
I have placed a compressed file with two short videos of Xorg and
Wayland drags from an
application to an application in a different workspace at:

My question: Is the Wayland behavior intended by design or should I
report a bug?
Thanks,
