That seems the same issue than bug #934770 the change was discussed described by Chase on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-desktop/2012-February/003694.html
"* When the user checks "Enable mouse clicks with touchpad", I believe the "Synaptics Locked Drags" setting should be true. ... If it's not entirely clear what the change is, try setting the property and playing with it. Enabling the property resolves the problem of trying to drag farther than your touchpad is wide or tall."

Normally if i want to drag or maximise a window i can double tab on the mouse-pad and drag the window. After that, I release my finger and I'm done. At this moment the mouse pointer sticks to the window (a hand icon) and it needs a extra tab to release it. I do not like this behaviour, is this changed in unity or a bug?
