Does Eclipse Ganymede have a mouse-click bug in the Navigator view?

I've had to downgrade from Galileo to Ganymede in order to use the version of the FlexBuilder plugin that we are licensed for. Since the downgrade, I have several times accidentally dragged files or entire folders from one part of my project into another (or even into another project). I blamed this on fatfingers the first couple times, but I just now watched it do it to me on what I definitely know to have been a single left click on the folder that the file ended up moving to.

Does anybody know if this is a known issue with Ganymede?

Not that I know of.

Here are the known DnD (Drag and Drop) issues with the CommonNavigator in Eclipse 3.4.x, none of them describing a scenario which would be close of what you are experiencing.

A helpful link, thanks. This is sort of a "proving a negative" question, so it's going to be hard to find an answer I can call accepted. For what it's worth, switching from my trackball to the macbook touchpad seems to have made it go away, which is kind of a high price to pay.

@Brian: interesting feedback. I concur with you, my answer is not one "to be accepted";) Just a first element of response, hoping for others to have a better answer.
