I'm adding the following, so searches of this symptom will also find this thread:
Once the bug is triggered, it also repeatably affects LibreOffice Calc - if you click-select a worksheet tab or drag-select a set of cells then release mouse, it enters drag-and-drop mode, and (strangely) draws a thick border around the selection, which you cannot undo or reformat. I can exit DND mode with ESC. And temporarily remove the problem with the xinput solution, but I agree with #53 that disabling touch screen is insufficient - you need to re-enable too.
