[Casper] Can't drag items on desktop.

[Miles Leacy]

That's very odd.  To help troubleshoot, I have a few questions...
What's in your imaging log?
What's in your configuration (packages, scripts)?
What was in the "plan" of your imaging task ("Show Plan" button in Casper
Imaging)?
Are any other user accounts affected by this?
