x11-toolkits/open-motif*: Disable XmPIXMAP mode for drag-and-drop
In XmPIXMAP mode, Motif will draw to the root window with IncludeInferious without being under a GrabServer. This results in a variety of graphical glitches. For example, when a compositing window manager updates the screen it will erase the drag icon. This continues until the icon leaves the origin window, when Motif does a GrabServer. The GrabServer avoids the graphical glitches, but it also freezes the rest of the desktop (which is impolite). Given that all current X servers support SHAPE, and given that most users are running a compositing window manager, XmDRAG_WINDOW is always a better choice. Therefore, disable XmPIXMAP entirely.
