--- Comment #50 from Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebk...@gmail.com> ---
FYI, on windows, window management is completely done by the clients (so a
client knows that this is gonna be a drag and can avoid the self-raise)
The WM_TAKE_FOCUS protocol (despite the focus has really nothing to do with the
stack order) pointed that direction (and sucks terribly because of broken
client implementations... letting alone the focus stealing problems)

Raising on MB release would be possible (on caveats, see comment #37), but just
cause other behavioral problems (if the user didn't want to drag something, but
draw a selection frame etc.)

About present windows to the rescue:
*cough* https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/105341/ **COUGH**
:-P


Last thought: detect the drag (maybe even on X11 by listening to dnd messages
rather than "something grabbed the pointer") and restore the stack if it
happened within "the dnd timeout™" (which doesn't exist either - there's no
guarantee Qt and Gtk wait the same amount of time), ie. lower the window we
just raised (while even that could be nasty: assume the user wanted to dnd
within the just raised client and suddenly it lowers again)

tl;dr - clean up your f**** desktop ;-P
