This bug actually has a much simpler workaround: use CSS to disable image-dragging in ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu. There's no rational reason that a user would need to drag and drop images from the installer.
The attached patch does this, for all <img> elements in ubiquity- slideshow-ubuntu. I initially stuck it on the "icon" class, but that doesn't disable the drag and drop on the firefox.html slide, because that slide's <img> element has no class.
