I can reproduce part 1 of this bug. I've tried disabling all firefox
extensions as well as disabling compiz/desktop effects and the tooltip
bug persists.

Ubuntu 8.10 amd64
firefox 3.0.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu2

Steps to reproduce:
 * browse to any website
 * quickly drag the site icon (to the left of the http address) across the 
address field to the bookmarks toolbar, and hold the cursor here without 
releasing the button

expected result:
bookmark can be dropped into the bookmarks toolbar by releasing the mouse button

actual result:
quite often the tooltip that would appear when hovering over the site icon 
appears. The placement is such that it obscures the bookmark toolbar and often 
will not allow dropping of the bookmark in the desired place.

The tooptip seems to appear somewhat erratically and occasionally shows
the full site address in stead of the security info that normally
appears.

Both speed of dragging, and the actual dragging path seem to affect
whether or not the tooltip appears, and what info it has.

My bookmarks toolbar is full of bookmark folders, but this doesn't
appear to affect whether or not the tooltip appears.

Attaching a screenshot and marking confirmed.

note: in these screenshots the cursor appearance is incorrect - it is
actually the dragging hand link icon that you normally get. I had to use
a timed screenshot to get it, as taking a screenshot via the printscreen
button was not possible while dragging the link. This seems to have
replaced the actual cursor with the default one in the screenshots...
