TB 60: Display an icon when doing drag and drop of a message instead of the message subject itself

In the previous version of TB, when doing a drag and drop of a message into the folder, the mouse pointer would be just an "document" icon. In the 60 version, it is now dragging the whole subject line, which makes it very very difficult to see what folder I'm trying to drop it into. The icon version was much easier to see.

Is there a way to control (revert) this behavior, even if it is editing a .js file?

Linux, fedora 19 (yes that's old, I'm working on building a new box, but I doubt this will impact the behavior.)

Thanks!
