The problem is that this raise happens not on 'click' but on mouse-down itself.

Exactly! These are ways to 'circumvent' the problem. The problem exists and it
is disappointing to see that it'd still need to be worked around even though we
now have a perfect opportunity to fix this - Wayland new Qt etc etc.

Hmm.. Users are not just 'able' to realise. They are forced to. And all these
workaround statements can be equally applied to removing drag & drop altogether
(for Dolphin, for example) saying that "users can just do Ctrl+C/X & Ctrl+V".

Anyway, if this is how we are 'fixing' this bug, please close it as WONTFIX
rather than FIXED. Because that's what's happening to this bug report. No
offense.
