How to disable drag-and-drop tabs to search bar?
I always have a lot of tabs open in Firefox, and oftentimes I move tabs around, whether intentionally or habitually (and accidentally). The problem is that a lot of times the tab is dragged on/near the search bar and this causes Firefox to respond by copying the tab's address to the search and start searching.
I would like to disable one or both of these. I never use this, especially since whatever address I'm at is already found and if I actually wanted to search for it then I would just copy it and search myself. I want to disable the auto search and if possible, also disable copying the address.

It is possible for window creation, note this work around: http://www.ghacks.net/2012/12/04/firefox-disable-tab-drag-and-drop-wi... However I did not find one for general dragging/moving tabs.
Another add on that provided more customization tricks is known as: "https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../?src=search"
Did this help?

No; as I said, my problem is tabs and the search bar. I drag tabs into new windows practically everyday and the other doesn't seem to have anything related to this either. I only read the description and looked at the pictures and etc, so I did not download it to give it a thorough review prior to declining it as it doesn't seem at all related.
Curious:
Does that ghacks thing also disable the tab-search thing in addition to disabling new windows, or did you just post a completely different tab-drag-drop related issue?
(not rhetorical or sarcastic, I'm actually asking)
